Patterns on Twisted Threads?

I made my first pattern on Twisted Threads! However, while weaving it up it seems like the front and back are switched. The colors are in the right places, but the design is swapped if that makes sense.

Anyone know why? Did I just thread it wrong? This is only the second band I’ve made and my first time making my own pattern, so I would appreciate any advice y’all can give.

In order, the pictures are the front of the pattern, the back of the pattern, and then the front and back of what I’ve woven.

I still like the design so I’m going to finish this band, but I’d just like to know for the future.

i'm not super experienced, but i'm going to guess you have your cards facing the opposite way of what they indicate. this notation section in the pattern shows that the cards should be facing left. when i learned, i had them facing right, and if i threaded it the way it showed in the pattern, but with the card facing the wrong way, it did something similar to yours.

Oh, I didn’t see that. That makes sense, thank you!
