This little basket is patterned after those of the Hupa and Yurok Indians of northern California. They used Hazel, Spruce roots, Bear grass, and Maidenhair fern stems in most of their baskets. I\u2019ve used peeled and split Willow<\/b> shoots for the spokes, and twined with Rattlesnake Master<\/b> leaves and Basswood<\/b> fiber. The different twining techniques are subtle, but effective. The bead is a Kentucky Coffee Tree<\/b> bean, with banty feathers.
