So far, so good
So the problems are : I used wool and the card wears it away very quickly
: I cannot keep track of where I am in the sequence if I have to leave it for any reason
: The design I'm working shows on the reverse of the work, it that normal???
So back to the drawing board, I'm open to ideas, anyone ?

I have got no experience with this, but I´ve got some literature about this weaving. There is written you can numbered each card and each hole in cards. Maybe it will help.
I've numbered the holes but get confused as to when to go forward or backward after leaving it for a few mins :-) going to try again!!
So far you have a repeat pattern easier to work with.
As long as the front is good in the end don't worry if you see the back now. Have fun playing with it until you get a better answer.
Loosing place: Keep a written pattern on the side. Even if it is just a number list of the rows in the repeat. And place a marker on the last row done when you need to walk away.
As to the card wear. Use celeophane tape to cover the cards. add another layer between uses as needed. (Not a fix, but you will get more wear from them.)
Hope I helped?
