Directions for plain weaving:

Over, under, over, under, over , under all the way accross the row.

Begin each row the opposite way. It will be easier to remember if you start all odd number rows with an over, and all even numbered rows with an under.

 

 

Directions for weaving twill:

 

Under 1, over 2, under 1, over 2, under 1, over 2 all across the row.

Begin the next row 2 under, and then continue with over 2, under 1, over 2, under 1 all across the row.

This is how jeans and khakis are woven. It is always over 2, under 1, over 2, under 1. You'll see th diagonal rows emerge of you begin odd number rows with 1 under and even number rows with 2 under.
