Tablet Weaving Mechanics: How does it work?

How do these cards and thread make such intricate designs? What on earth is S and Z and what does it mean? What is this witchcraft?!

I focus on the mechanics of how the tablets/cards move, how they move the threads, and what changing different variables does to the weaving. Learn the mechanics to gain a better understanding of how patterns work.
