basketry

Just seems weird, like having an article about football in a basketry journal.

I never got this one, but I wish I did (considering I got such gems as coin-collecting and basketry).

I've helped with burns used to knock back plants like hazelnut so they'll produce long thin branches ideal for basketry.

And used medicinally (anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial to treat headaches, tinnitus, vertigo, Wei syndrome, alcoholism and hangover), and even for basketry.

I've recently taken up basketry for much the same reasons, but it has the added bonus that you don't really need any special equipment and the cost of materials is pretty low.

Helmets from the Neolithic far east seem to have developed this aspect first, as they start out from ceremonial pottery, then the same design reinforced with basketry, and then you have the same design as a lacquer mask on a more dedicated military helmet.

People in past times, he wrote, appear to have travelled a great deal – more than they do today – and it’s simply impossible to imagine that anyone back then would have been unaware of the existence of basketry, feather pillows, or the wheel if such objects were regularly employed a month or two’s journey away; the same could presumably be said of ancestor cults or syncopated drum rhythms.

It must have been fulfilling to start out a young inexperienced women in your village and eventually become an influential matriarch, with knowledge in herbal medicine, nursing, textiles, pottery, basketry, child development, leadership, storytelling, etc.

I'd far rather teach basketry & other fiber arts, foraging for food & medicine, land stewardship, how to hunt kill and process animals for food, and other primitive (using this word non-pejoratively) skills done as a tight-knot group (such as what a classroom can be with good leadership- not saying I provided that to the degree I value now, but if/when I go back to teaching, I will).

I'm pretty interested in traditional English forest management, and reducing brush and decreasing canopy increased the amount of forest "products" available to people, from building materials (basketry, hut materials, etc) to increased yields from under story vegetation.

At 29 USD for 38 pages, Basketry[0] doesn't look like a particularly useful buy.
