1. Do Opening A.
2. Index fingers move away from you over the little-finger loop (left photo), then move back toward you under intervening strings,
move into the thumb loop from above (center photo) and hook up far thumb strings (right photo).
(I guess the instruction is somewhat hard to understand. Please see the photos carefully.)
3. Release thumbs.
4. Index fingers move into little-finger loops from above and rotate 360-degrees with near little-finger strings and index-finger loops.
5. Thumbs pick up both near index-finger strings. Release little fingers.
6. Little fingers move over far index-finger strings and pick up both arms of the M-shaped pattern.

9. Release upper thumb loops.
