weblike
Like interlaced threads
Weblike describes something resembling a web—having an interconnected, mesh-like structure with threads or strands radiating from a center or crossing each other: weblike cracks spread across the windshield, the weblike network of capillaries beneath the skin.
The word evokes spider webs but applies to anything with similar delicate, interlacing patterns.
