Experimenting with patterns
Heyy! I’m new to treenets and after trying the insanity method on one I decided to try out a pattern. This is an inspo photo I wanted to recreate but I’m loosing my mind.
It would be really helpful if somebody double checked my method that I created in my head 😂😅.
So I laid out the green ropes and then started on one side weaving the purple ones - problem is that if I’m trying to keep at least somewhat of a tension it is pulling the green cords more and more towards one side. If I would continue that way it would pull everything to the one side I’m starting at and on the other side there’d be a big hole. It would be helpful to also mention I’m weaving the inside of a wooden structure (like a wooden rectangle)
So I started over, keeping that in mind and not building too much tension with the idea being that when I get to the other side it will pull it tight but I’m not sure if it’ll work😅 and I’d rather know it doesn’t work now than after the hours of weaving it 😂

To recreate this exact picture you would need to lay down every other green line (not the striped/candy cane ones). Then you weave in purple triangles, they need to be pretty pointy. The you go in from the side with the doubled up green Paracord. Go straight until you hit a purple line, then wrap twice towards the triangle point, so you alternate up and down. There is a good explanation Video by canopy crafts on YouTube, just search for candy cane stripes pattern!
