A short article by Ralph Griswold on 'befriending' sequences for weave drafting: converting sequences whose successive terms do not differ by one into 'friendly' sequences usable as threading and treadling orders. It describes conservative and enthusiastic (randomized) befriending, modular reduction and expansion on a shaft wheel, and applies the methods to the Fibonacci sequence modulo 8. An appendix presents 240-end by 240-pick drawdowns on eight shafts using direct and twill tie-ups, derived from Fibonacci and prime sequences.
