Delta Jean's Basket...

Here is the beginning of DJ's basket weaving...If she keeps going it might get big enough to carry something in. We did one with a loom and warp first ( the orange and green jute yarn) and then a coiled basket which can be traced to many cultures and regions including the Middle East (3rd day of Asia) -which is where we will look at and make this type basket. The one on the grass was hers and the all brown one in the middle is mine, which I will keep working on. Campers will sit by the creek to work on these or if not interested play/explore nearby.
