- First of all I would get a bundle of sally sticks. Then I would make the frame out of four sticks, the lenght of each stick being one foot long. Then I would get four pieces of cord each piece of cord being the same length. Then I would tie a piece of cord to each of the four corners of the frame. Then I would join the four pieces together in the middle of the frame. After that I would prepare more sticks, the sticks for the (m) next square being an inch shorter. Then I would keep on building the crib, narrowing it towards the top. Then I would leave a square hole in the (n) top of the crib, and I would line it off with small sticks and then the crib would be ready for use.
