Description : Basketry is the art of using natural materials such as wicker, roots, straw, cattail, linden bark and bast to weave practical items and decorations. It is practised by people of all genders. Some weavers work independently, while others are commissioned by businesses. Many certified weavers lead organizations and offer courses or open workshops. Although weavers typically work in home workshops, they are active in their local communities, sharing the craft and promoting its cultural importance through events such as contests, fairs and exhibitions.
