The answer

WEAVE

What weave means

To interlace threads, strips, or other flexible materials by passing them alternately over and under each other to create fabric or a woven pattern.

Where the word comes from

From Old English *wefan*, meaning to interlace threads. The word traces back through Proto-Germanic *webanan* to an Indo-European root *webh-*, which also produced the Latin *texere* (to weave or construct). The sense of "to move back and forth" developed from the literal motion of a weaver's shuttle.
