What size pavers work for basket weave?

Units with a true 2:1 ratio — 4x8, 6x12 and similar — so pairs form clean squares without cutting.

Pattern

Basket Weave Paver Pattern

Basket weave pairs units in alternating horizontal and vertical blocks, creating a traditional woven texture. It suits courtyards, garden paths and historic-context projects, and it works best with true 2:1 rectangular units.

Design notes

Pair basket weave with tumbled units and warm blends for an old-world courtyard, or with crisp smooth units for a graphic, tailored look.

Laying and waste

Pattern choice changes labor and waste before it changes anything else. Straight rectangular fields run about 5% waste; diagonals, curves and borders push that to 10% or more. Confirm the unit's true (actual) dimensions rather than the nominal size when planning the layout.
