Slip stitch patterns with hand transferred stitches, single bed 2

The previous post, Slip stitch patterns with hand transferred stitches, single bed 1 grew quite lengthy; this one will host newer experiments.
This stitch pattern reminded me of bowknot/butterfly stitch design. Samples explored in the past were executed using both knit and ribber beds. This version is knit using the single bed.
The smallest repeat, 14X40, the plan is for a swatch 46X40 repeat, with a color change at the midpoint, the PNG. Knit the first 2 design rows. When the first row with groups of three non-selected needles occurs, bring the center needle of each group out, indicated by the red cell, moving from one side of the bed to the other, and knit the stitches through using a length of ravel cord, leaving some slack between them. Return the emptied needles to the B position. They will be skipped/slipped along with their pairs of side-by-side companions, forming floats. When the first row of every needle preselection occurs, beginning on either side, tug down on each stitch with the ravel cord, elongating it (L image). Insert a tool through its center front to back, lift it on the empty needle (R image), lining it up in position D or E.
The ravel cord can be unthreaded after each step while continuing the process, moving to the opposite side of the needle bed, or after reaching the opposite side. The first repeat used a yarn from a cone that “unexpectedly” ended

In this design, the elongated slipped stitches are brought up and crossed behind groups of 3 knit stitches.
The idea began to be explored in a spreadsheet; the repeat is 14 stitches by 6 rows. Color 1 knits for 2 rows, forms the elongated stitches, and color 2 forms the background stripes.
The first preselection row is made from left to right with color 1, the knit carriage is set to slip in both directions, and the second row will be knit on the return to the color changer, where color 2 is picked up and knits for 4 rows.
A chart for a programmed repeat, 56X18. The groups of white cells with the associated non-selected needles on row 5 are guides for tracking the related hand technique.
Half the stitches are moved from the center forward, the slipped stitch is moved 3 stitches over, toward the center, and the group of 3 stitches is returned to the top bed on the 3 empty needles. The steps are repeated on the alternate half.
Bring all needles forward after the transfers, pick up color 1, knit 2 rows, change to color 2, knit for 4 rows in the tuck pattern, transfer stitches, change color, continue to repeat the process.
