Since the site has deep connections with silk route and silk trade, process of silk making was studied and weaving is an important part of it.

"Weaving is an ancient textile art and craft that involves placing two sets of threads or yarn called the warp and weft of the loom and turning them into cloth."

Some young practices have used the concept of weaving and have used parametric sine and cosine equations to construct space. One example of these practices is Aranda / Lasch.

"Weaving is the synthesis of two different systems, interlocking in order to give self supporting to their combines whole."

"Weaving produces strength by combining two weak systems in a reciprocal pattern."
