How to Weave a Reed Basket

First, a few facts about working with reeds, they are extremely brittle when dry because they are dry grass. If they are too pliable just let then dry a few minutes. Place four pieces of the reed in your hand so they are horizontal and the other four vertical. Bring the narrow reed over the vertical strands and under the horizontal ones. Working with the smaller sized reed, briefly run warm water over it before uncoiling it.Do the same all the way around.
