    I live in South Africa, here where I live we have many beautiful pine's. My girlfriend is in China at the moment and yesterday I said to her, "I wonder if you can make basket's from wild iris leaves" and then pop up on my feed. Really enjoyed the simplicity in how you made your pine needle basket.

    • @DustTheNation
      @DustTheNation  3 роки тому

      Maybe try not to soak the needles as long next time or even try to only slightly dampen them. It seems that if they hold too much moisture, it'll cause a big difference in basket size when they dry. If the needles you're using don't break when weaving, then you could probably even skip the soaking step to avoid this from happening.

      That should be totally fine! Just make sure they are dried out completely and store them in a cool, dry area so that they don't grow mold or mildew until you're ready to use. Then soak before you start your project and you should be set to go.

    • @DustTheNation
      @DustTheNation  3 роки тому

      You can certainly make a larger basket. It all depends on how wide you make the base of your coil and if you decide to widen your basket. As for weight, I'm not too sure if it could hold very much weight. My guess would be that it can't hold very much weight, given how brittle the needles can become after drying.

      If you collect green pine needles, you should let them dry in the sun first. Otherwise, if you weave with green needles, the basket threading will loosen up once the pine needles dry and that'll ruin all your hard work.
