I am trying but failing to get a good diagram for this ...


You know, the kind of thread work in which the threads make a nice and curvy pattern, while being drawn straight.

I'd like to reuse such a pattern as basis for a little net. Two things would be necessary :

  • making a diagram on cardboard;
  • that this diagram in no point crosses more than 2 lines (or threads).


Because, then I could use the crossing points of lines as interlocking points for strands in the net.

Here are my failures:





As you can see, there are too many "threads" or lines crossing at some points. If you want to interlock two strands in a net, you need to have a point at which two lines are crossing, and you need it sufficiently distant from next point where two lines are crossing./HGL

PS : here too:
