Great video, Z, as always. Really appreciate your efforts to produce these instructional tutorials. Just in the middle of making the basket in your video but using birch bark instead.
Many thanks.
Hi Phil I sincerely appreciate your kind words and wonderful hearing you using birch bark as a substitute! ~Peace~
