Step 1: Take a piece of « square » paper and draw lines on the diagonals. If you will design for 24 cards, draw 13 lines, making rows that are 12 (6+6 small) squares wide. To Designs for 32 cards, draw 17 lines/16 squares, etc.
Step 2: Draw your design with a pencil, taking care to follow the pre-printed thin lines of the square paper. You can change it en re-draw until you are happy with the design.
Step 3: Fill in the design with a color pen (preferably red).
Step 4: Draw blue horisontal lines as indicated, 4 small squares appart, throughout the design (I only drew 3 in this example).
Take care where the horisontal blue line cross the middle vertical line, it should NOT touch the red line. If it does, move the blue line a square down or up.
Step 5: Decide on your weaving direction and mark it with an arrow.
Step 6: Fill in the squares as below.
•Row 1: , i.e. the row above your blue line. Take a pencil and fill all squares that have a red line diagonally (leaving the others white).
•Row 2: Fill all squares that do not have a red line diagonally (leaving the red boxes white).
•Row 3, as row 1, etc.
•Row 4, as row 2, etc.
Step 7: Weave.
Each square represents a Sulawesi pair (2 SS or 2 ZZ threaded tablets) and 2 picks of weaving. This means that you only change the positions of your tablets either in position AD up or BC up. At the blue line, all cards will be back in starting position (and after row 2 as well).
Remember that the 2 tablets in the SS/ZZ pair move together.
White square means 2 picks forwards (away from you).
Dark square means 2 picks backwards (towards you).
For comparasion, full weaving diagram to the left with all picks and cards. To the right the drawn weaving diagram, where one square represents 2 picks and a card-pair (2 cards).
One advantage of drawing your weaving diagrams on paper, is that you can photocopy it, cut and re-arrange the components into new designs.
I encourage you to check out my page with my own designs, where I have uploaded some of them. This will give a better idea of the finished result.
A great post without any doubt.
The crux of your writing while appearing agreeable originally, did not really settle well with me after some time. Someplace throughout the paragraphs you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately only for a short while. I still have a problem with your jumps in logic and you would do well to help fill in all those breaks. In the event that you actually can accomplish that, I would certainly be fascinated.
