This basket is a variation on an Adirondack Pack Basket, one of the oldest surviving traditions inside the Adirondack Park. You will use a continuous weave technique and hand shaping to create this wonderfully useful basket. Bridle leather will be used to weave the strapping and create a strap that will leave your hands free for blueberry picking or any other type of gathering. It also makes a great container to keep your yarn when knitting socks. The approximate finished size is 10" – 12" tall (width may vary). This is a challenging class with lots of hand shaping.

Creating this container requires sewing each of two cylinders of birch bark together, using two different techniques. The two cylinders are joined by sewing a rim of spruce roots, as well as sewing on a base of 3 layers. Students will also learn harvesting and preparation of spruce roots, and incorporate a design with porcupine quills on the outside wall, if desired.
