Coiled Basket with Inukshuk
Sarah Mickiyuk
CA$2,070.00Woven coiled grass basket, Thread (coloured), Serpentine stone
2012
The process of basket-making is long and arduous as it can take up to a month to weave a large basket. Baskets are made from repeatedly coiling the grass from the bottom of the basket and building the basket up. Designs are created by stitching thread onto the basket, however some designs are actually woven in. This thread can be made from a number of materials, such as de-haired sealskin, leather, and yarn.
