basketweaves
Over-under textile technique
Basketweaves are textile patterns that mimic the interlaced structure of woven baskets, with threads crossing over and under each other in alternating groups.
The term applies to fabrics, flooring, and decorative surfaces that display this crisscross arrangement: The basketweave tiles gave the patio a classic look.
