As the final position of each bolt and it's safety wire hole will be in a random orientation, there is no "Authorised" pattern or layout to follow. The wire is just there to ensure the the bolts don't unscrew in an anti-clockwise direction. sometimes the wire can run direct to the next bolt, sometimes it needs to be wrapped once around the head of the bolt, always in a clockwise direction.
Some people run the wire in a square around the perimeter, some in an "X" pattern across the middle. Sometimes a single strand is used, other times a twisted pair of wires are used to increase tension. All are good, as long as the wire is run to prevent the bolt heads from turning anti clockwise.
