Excerpt from Fine Willow Basketry While it is strongly urged that traditional methods be adhered to, the same argument does not apply, in the case of designs, and a large variety of pattern and an infinite variety of shape is possible, the latter being suggested by everyday objects such as boxes, bowls, vases, and other brie-a-bmc found in every home. The baskets of commerce can also be taken as models and produced in miniature as, for example, the familiar Christmas hamper. In this little manual restraint has been exercised with regard to the designs used as examples and the reader is recommended to master the traditional forms exemplified here before giving rein to his fancy. One thing is important. As soon as the novice gains some mastery over his material, he should endeavour to work strictly to a shape and measurements previously determined upon. Nothing is easier than to allow the work to get out of hand and if this happens it is useless to attempt to make it come right. There is only one remedy and that the drastic one of cutting down the work to the point where it started to go wrong and doing it over again. In the practice of basket-making speed is an important factor as the work is mainly a repetition of a few simple weaves or strokes. The expert attains speed not by strain and hurry, but by the elimination of all superfluous motions, a point to which the novice should give careful attention, particularly in the preliminary cutting out of material, For example, it is far quicker to slype all the stakes at one opera tion than to do each one separately and insert it in the bottom before doing the next. An hour or so spent in watching an expert basket maker will be an eye-opener in this respect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Basket Willow Nearly half a century ago, on learning that a party in New York had imported from Europe cuttings of the European Basket Willow, I ordered several hundred cuttings for trial; for I had long been convinced that the introduction of any new tree, shrub, or vine that can be cultivated with profit, tends to improve the condition of the farmer, and to add wealth to the country.

Excerpt from More Baskets and How to Make Them The interest in basketry which began in this country some three years ago is on the increase rather than on the wane. This may seem surpris ing to the uninitiated, but those who have made baskets will understand it. Basketry has proved itself. In schools and social settlements one notes the contrast between the beginners' mats and baskets, loosely woven and crude in form, and the graceful forms and solid weaving of experienced young craftsmen. A well-made basket shows more than dexterity and skill: it stands for patience and stick-to-it-iveness, and has the value of all good work. Best of all, children love the craft and would rather weave baskets or wander afield in search of natural material for weaving or dyes than do anything else you can suggest. To grown people basketry is a boon. It is unusual to find a craft so simple as to require no tools or para.

Excerpt from The Basket Maker HE fruition of thought is expression. Thought along the lines of manual train ing is susceptible of expression in many ways and through many mediums. The expression of thought through wood and iron necessitates a more or less elaborate equipment of tools, and for this reason those mediums of expression are denied younger pupils. But the expression of thought through basketry, requires almost no tools (a knife and scratch-awl), has variety as to form and color and almost unlimited possibilities in design. It is my aim in this booklet to give in simple English and with illustrations which may be comprehended by the youngest pupil, the results of my thought and teaching of basketry.
