 
 Plaiting: 
  also known as checker weave, is a straightforward technique in which the weft 
  crosses over and under one warp at a time. When the weft passes over or under 
  more than one warp at a time, it results in a decorative pattern known as twilling. 
  Plaiting can also be done on a diagonal, or bias, weave. (In plaiting the weft 
  is the active weaving element and the warp is the foundation element.)
