Different possibilities of a 3-way weave

I hope this is of interest to basket makers, crafters, maths teachers and others wanting to find more uses for the excess packaging we all find ourselves with these days.

I’m sure this comparison is not yet complete, if anyone would like to contribute with further discoveries, or help me out with geometric terminology, I’d be happy to hear from you.
