New double bed swatches based on published sources of inspiration

WORK IN PROGRESS

From Dubied pattern books,
1: matching needle set up
2: stitch positions after racking to the right
3: stitch positions after racking to the left
These images illustrate the differences produced depending on the number of rows knit without racking: four on the left and 2 on the right. The knit is reversible, is lightly pleated, and lies flat. In this swatch, no rows were knit between racking sequences.   This pattern requires more interpretation, as seen in the blue text notes. The knit bed may be programmed, thus automating its functions. The repeat as suitable for punchcard models, 24X36 the corresponding PNGand proof of concept, knit on 40 stitches, testing a one stitch knit vertical border on the left side, and 2 stictch one on the other. The 930 automatically mirrors the design
