Easy to do if there are passive pairs at the edges, as you can just add an extra passive pair on each side. With 16 pairs instead of 14 total:- if there are 4 passive pairs on either side of a central pattern braid, you will now have 5 passive pairs on each side, not 6.
You'll need to remember when reading any instructions how many extra pairs you have added and where. perhaps an annotated photocopy will help you get it right easily. If the pattern continues across the whole row, you will need to consider how many pairs there are in a repeat across the row, before deciding if you can add 2 pairs without causing confusion Which braid is it you are thinking of widening?

I was thinking of bringing them in at the sides so instead of following the pattern by taking the worker through say the first 4 pairs I would then take it through the first 6 pairs. I hope I have explained it how I am thinking it.
