Each woven interaction
produces its
rotational complement. Just as the individual
crossings of filaments have their helical axes so
each square in a plain weave has its
opposite. Each cell's neighbors are its
mirror form like alternate squares on a
chess board.
In three-way weaving,
hexagons
alternate with triangles. The weave can
be set in two distinct forms like right and
left-handed gloves. If the hexagons are
constructed clockwise the triangles are
counterclockwise and vice versa.
