A2

Yarn carrier moves in lower position.

A3

Yarn carrier moves to the beginning of its color field.

B

The yarn carrier works in its color field.

C1

Overrun path: 0.4 inch (6 nic)
Yarn carrier moves further at the end of the color field by the overrun path.

C2

Yarn carrier in lower position moves back to its color field.

C3
