wow just wow I am going to have to move next door to pat and just be his shadow. If half of his craftsmanship rubs off on me I would be 1000xs better than now that is for sure.

By the way, Keenan, the cherry bark accent came from Bryan B. From Oregon to NC and back to Oregon.

Thanks everyone. I started making these last year. My wife was a basket maker for years until carple tunnel made her quit so I had a good teacher. It is pretty simple once you get started. The hardest part is keeping the tension even as you weave the basket. With a tube like this it is easy to go a little tight here and a little loose there and come out with an unintended hourglass shape. Having different materials as weavers also adds to the fun! d;^)
