Clear Directions,
By A Customer
This review is from: Indian Basket Weaving (Paperback)
This book is great for someone who has a little experience with baskets already. Someone with no experience can follow as well, but some of the techniques are a little bit harder than in standard basket weaving. The instructions are pretty clear, and if you thouroughly read them, then you shouldn't have any trouble. Overall, this book makes a great addition to a basketweaver's library, and I'm glad that I bought it.

This review is from: Indian Basket Weaving (Paperback)
This book is a reprint of the original 1903 version. The writing and comments are charmingly dated. The photos are clear, even though in black and white. The instructional drawings are easy to follow.This will be my reference book for great designs for years to come. Great buy. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful

Indian BasketWeaving,
By D. Beran - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Indian Basket Weaving (Paperback)
The book was orginally published in the early 1900's this is apparent by the dialect of the text. The information about the different styles of baskets is very interesting, however the photographs as an aid in constructing them leave something to be desired.
