Starting Second Half Of Scarf

While weaving away, I was thinking I read in the 'Weft-Faced Pattern Weaves Tabby to Taquete' by Nancy Arthur Hoskins, that there was another way to weave this. An alternate way if you will.

I have been weaving
Pattern A+ tie 1
Pattern B+ tie 1
Pattern A+ tie 2
Pattern B+ tie 2

Her other way would be:
Pattern A+ tie 1
Pattern A+ tie 2
Pattern B+ tie 1
Pattern B+ tie 2

Pattern A is the opposite of Pattern B. I have 5 such pattern combinations. Here are my pattern treadles. Each 'set' has an A an B.
                                                    AB   AB     AB    AB    AB
I am not sure what the difference would be, but maybe I will try that if I have any warp left to play with.
