There are suggestions for the weaving of shells, beads, feathers, fan palms, date palms, and even pine needles, and recipes for the preparation of dyes.\u003cbr\u003eExamples of each type of basket are illustrated by photographs, often taken from more than one angle so that the bottom can be seen as well as the top and sides. Close-up photography of the various types of stitching, especially at the crucial stage of beginning the basket, is an invaluable aid to the weaver. In addition, the authors have provided line drawings which are exceptionally clear magnifications of the various weave patterns.\u003cbr\u003eAnyone who follows the lessons contained in this book will have a knowledge of basketry unattainable in any other way. They are so lucid and complete that the amateur as well as the experienced weaver will be able to manufacture baskets distinguishable from authentic native articles only in that they were not woven by Indians. For those who merely seek a broader knowledge of American Indian arts, the book provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject of basketry.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Indian Basket Weaving (Revised) | Navajo School of Indian Basketry | Paperback | 0486226166 | Used: Very Good | Art Instruction \u0026 Crafts 1764620 (temp: 9)","offer_id":49310617993368,"sku":"1764620","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/61QSy40GyrL.jpg?v=1782061348","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/indian-basket-weaving-revised","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
