Look at the designs on the sweater and mufflers.
Did you notice any pattern?
Obviously, the pattern involves symmetry and repetition of certain shapes at regular
intervals.
Check the design of the mat woven from bamboo sticks and the charpai woven with
rope.
The pattern of these two can be described as:
row 1: over – under - over – under – over – under – over ...
row 2: under – over – under – over – under – over ...
Look at the mat here. What is its pattern?
row 1: 2 over, 1 under, 2 over, 1 under, ...
row 2: 2 under, 1 over, 2 under, 1 over, ...
Can you identify the pattern in the given mat? Just think and try.
