Looking For Info On Bates Style Patterns

[SeventhSon]

Hey all, I'm hoping to learn the old bates style tuck and roll patterns, or diamond patterns, but I dont have a machine. Is it possible to do this style of seat without a machine? Im hoping to find some good info or step by step tutorial on doing a seat of this type, I've googled the hell out of it but cant find exactly ehat im after. Im hoping I can get some insight from you guys. I attached a pic of a seat that I found thats the same sort of diamond style I'm after.
