Basket weave is a weaving technique used to create a pattern of interlaced strips. It is commonly used in basketry, furniture, and other decorative items. The term 'basket weave' can refer to two different types of weaving: NET and natte. NET weaving involves weaving strips of material in an over-under pattern, while natte weaving involves weaving strips of material in a diagonal pattern. Both techniques are used to create a strong, durable, and attractive pattern.
