The structure is double layer double two tie unit weave which doesn't sound nearly as romantic as Kete. The Maori use this same weave in their flax kete (kits).
8 ply wool warp, mohair weft, sett - 9 tpi

My Adventures in Hand Weaving
Season's greetings.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Kete; beautiful weaving.
However, I cannot find any reference to this interesting weave structure in my (limited) weave book library; can you suggest a reference.
Regards.
I've just posted a post about double two tie unit weave which I hope goes a small way to explaining it and doesn't leave you too confused.
