Right-angle weave stitch
Right-angle weave, one bead per cell, turned the way the thread turns.
In right-angle weave the thread passes through each bead at a right angle to the last, so neighbouring beads lie across and along in turn. The chart alternates them the same way, and a unit of four reads as the square it makes.

Square cells. Beads alternate horizontal and vertical, like a checkerboard.
A RAW design drawn on a straight grid looks half a bead off everywhere, because it is. The alternating lattice puts each bead where the thread leaves it, so a design reads as the squares it makes rather than as a grid. Counts are by bead, not by unit, which is what you buy.
