The (two) first I've given Sino-Tibetan cognates for, here is for
the last:

*pan & *pat
Cf. *ban/t & *pan/t
`braid/plait/interweave'
Cf. *ban/t & *pan/t `thin'

supposed unrelated (Matisoff)
*pyar
Cf. *byar & *pyar `affix/sew/plait/braid'

Having to do with fishing nets (*pa-tl- > *pa:l-, a pole is a catch-
tool).
