I'd call that a lock stitch, not a false plait. Just another
lacemaking technique that has more than one name.

It's something she calls a "false plait", though it's not the same
kind of "false plait that I know from laces with sewings (twist a
pair, sew into the other side, come back making one sewing over the
twisted bar for every two twists). What happens here is that a twisted
(1 twist only) pair comes from the left and another from the right.
They meet in the middle with a whole stitch (CTCT). Then they go on to
whatever part is next on the agenda.
