Pine Needle Baskets

This is a small Pine Needle Basket

I collect Pine Needles throughout the year and then dampen

They are easy to work with

Pine Needles dried and Sinew.

You take small bunches of needles and create a round bottom

wrapping with Sinew for Security

Then you add small bunches all they way around and up in order to acheive a

small basket

This one is not liquid proof

But they can be made this way

I like the black sinew as it stands out

also Raffia may be used and dyed

Creating nice tight basket that can be used for Rings, Earrings,

or Other Small trinkets
