Procedure For Carrying Plates

To carry plates safely: for stacks, wrap a towel around plates and carry with both hands away from your body. For single plates, hold between thumb and forefinger on the rim, not inside. For two plates, hold the first normally and support the second against the index finger from below or balanced on the forearm from above. For four plates, hold the first normally, place the second between the forefinger and two fingers below, the third over the thumb and little finger, and carry the fourth in the other hand.

not hold the plates against your body.
One Plate
Always hold a plate between the thumb and forefinger (index) finger. Your
thumb should be flat on the rim of the plate, pointing toward the rim, never into
the plate.
Two Plates
Held from Below: Hold the first plate between the thumb and index finger. The
index finger is placed slightly behind the lower rim. Slide the second plate
against the index finger and support it with the other fingers from beneath.
Held from Above: The first plate is held with the thumb and index finger. With
that hand turned slightly upward, balance the second plate on the lower forearm
and the ball of the thumb. Support the upper plate with the other fingers.
Four Plates
The procedure for carrying four plates is as follows:
1. Seize the first plate between the thumb and the forefinger
2. Place the second plate between the forefinger (on the top) and the two
fingers major and ring finger (under).
3. Place the third plate over the basis of the thumb and the little finger.
4. The fourth plate is carried in the right hand, this will be the first plate
