This is going to sound ridiculous but what is the past tense of weave, as in someone weaved something together. I'm sure it is weaved, but something in my head is screaming wove... which I don't think is even a word, but won't go away.

A wove the strings together.
Alternatively, a gold pattern was woven into the material.

Weaved is not correct.

Wove or woven, I think; weaved is used in a different context.

x wove y together
The z was woven from...

they weaved through the traffic

According to the American Heritage dictionary, if it's the motion of weaving in and out, it should be weaved. If it's material that you weave, it should be wove. (D C Logan looked it up for me.)

It is wove. She wove a web.
