      He's wasn't weaving a basket. only making we call a doillie for setting hot pots on except the pots they made had bottoms that had no flat spot so if you sat the pot on a flat surface it would just fall over because the bottom was soaked like a ball? but if you center it in the ring it would give it a base so that it would sit upright.
      Also plunking a clay pot down on a rock with out something to pad it would possibly shatter it and pots took time to make so you wouldn't want to take a chance breaking it if you could set it down on something softer to protect it.

    I’m a basket maker spending the winter in New Mexico and wondered what materials the natives used. This video was perfect and timely.

    I loved watching this and would like to se it done more close up but it lookes like you were weaving the last 3 sets of leaves each time to extend it. Is this right?
    I will try replicating this.
    I weave baskets from reeds, mullberry, maguey, corn husk, and carizo cane leaves.
    Im moving to ohio and theres a lot of sumac there so i would like to know that process.
    Id also like to visit and see how you do much of this and if you would like i could collect some sumac if possible for you to work with.
    The trip would be well worth the knoledge.
