Hi Linda,

It's really very simple - for warp-twined bands, the thread to graph is the
one that _crosses over the top_ during the turn. If you weave in the "standard
position", with the cloth end toward you and the warp horizontal, for
a forward turn it's the hole in the top corner nearer you, and for a backward
turn it's the warp in the top corner farther from you.

In warp-twined bands, each warp crosses 2 wefts (except when you reverse
the turning direction),  but the warp thread that moves across the top
of the band is the one that forms the pattern.

http://www.stringpage.com/tw/twtheory.html talks about this a bit.

I'm in the middle of a big tw structural analysis project, so this is
at the top of my thoughts right now! Got any other questions? :)
