mesh
Fabric with holes
Mesh is a material or structure made of interlocking or woven strands with open spaces between them: wire mesh, mesh fence, mesh bag.
The openings themselves are meshes.
Gears mesh when their teeth interlock and work together.
Figuratively, things mesh when they fit or work well together: Our schedules don't mesh.
The flavors mesh beautifully.
