Basket Making By Chris
They make a basket called a hip basket that is used to collect eggs and it was easy to get them because it is on your hip. It takes about 2-3 days to make a good size basket. Another basket is a basket for the trout that they caught. They would put the trout in the basket and then carry them back, this was an easy way to bring trout back.
The weed basket is to collect different things of the frontier. They would use it to collect the things they cook with and things they need that day. They make the baskets out of willow. |
