The Complete Book of Baskets and Basketry" is a comprehensive guide to this satisfying craft. Ranging from the history of baskets to their care in museums, it explores the various regional and national styles and materials, and provides detailed advice and instruction on design, materials, techniques and care and repair. Dorothy Wright is an expert craftswoman and she gives us the benefit of her expertise. She provides instructions for a number of items made from materials ranging from willow and cane to straw and grasses, using methods such as stake-and-strand, coiling, plaiting and twining.
