This classic text in basket-making, now in paperback, shows how to
transform fragrant pine needles into stunning coiled baskets and
other decorative items. It's surprisingly easy, with all 40
projects based on wrapping needles around a center. From this
simple technique, however, crafters can create limitless variety
through the way they shape the coils, dye the needles, vary
stitches, embellish with beads and seeds, and incorporate leather
and wood. Special sections address gathering and storing materials,
making lids and handles, and more.
