- Basket Making
The way to make baskets is to get a bundle of long thin sally sticks. Then they used to sharpen the ends of the sticks and bend them in the shape of a ring for the top of the basket and a smaller one for the bottom and they would put sticks going from top to bottom and make a lot of rings to go around in and out through them.Nancy Murphy - You are not logged in, but you are welcome to contribute a transcription anonymously.
