Birka and Beyond

Directions

The diagrams below show in detail how to thread the cards, and how to weave the simple knot. Repeating the block from pick 7 - 14 once or twice will create the larger knots. The setup is for the 2-pack system. All cards are Z threaded.

Cards in first pack:    2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 15 16 19 20 23 24 27 28 31 32 36

Cards in second pack:    1 13 14 17 18 21 22 25 26 29 30 33 34 35

The first pack of cards is turned forward, the second pack is turned backward. Arrows indicate where a cards needs to be shifted from one pack to the other.
