Weaving is a method of making cloth by crossing threads over and under each other. Weavers use tools such as looms to create fabric from fibers like cotton, wool, or silk. The threads form patterns and textures in the material. Woven items can include clothing, rugs, and baskets.

Weaving is practiced in many cultures around the world, from traditional textiles in South America to fabrics in Asia and Africa. It began in ancient times and continues today. Different regions have their own weaving styles and designs. Woven materials are used in homes, clothing, and daily life.
