Once we can turn pair diagrams into thread diagrams we also have the building blocks to develop a recipe like language that can turn some description into a diagram. For example something like (tctc(1-2),lctc(2-3),ctc(3-5),tctc(5-6),lctc(5-4),ctc(4-2))*3 for 6 cloth stitch rows of a simple band with three passives and foot-sides. The number between braces meaning which pair are involved, for example ctc(3-5) means work pair 3 in cloth stitch through pair 4 and 5. Increasing numbers meaning working left to right, decreasing right to left. The pair diagram in ASCII art:
