Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Basket Makers, Vol. 1 of 2 One fine summer's afternoon, a Sundayw school teacher was returning from a neighbour ing village, where he had been instructing his class. He was one who enjoyed aright the scenes of nature, because he had learnt to view them in the light of God's holy word. The va tious objects he met with were made occasions of recalling to his mind passages of Scripture by which they were improved. Thus a serious and devotional spirit was cultivated, and the mind brought into a pleasing state of prepara tion for the services of the sanctuary, which he' usually attended in the evening, having sacri ficed his own privileges in the afternoon, in orr der to promote the best interests of poor chil dren.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Basket Making: Being the First Book of the How to Do It Series A demand for lessons in basket weaving by mail has led to the publishing of Basket Making, which is the first of the How To Do It series of handbooks that is about to be published by the printing department of the Art Craft Institute. These books will all be of uniform size and style, and will cover such subjects as Drawing, Designing, Phoenician Wood Carving and Pyrography, Metal work, Needle work and other arts that are taught in the Institute. Each edition will be fully illustrated, and as concise as consistent with the nature of the subject. It is expected that these books will, to a certain ex tent, take the place of the correspondence course, although work will still be received for criticism, as it is quite impossible to meet every requirement of the students in any one book, or in fact any num ber of books. The work is condensed to cover as large a field as possible, and the only excuse for its being, is, that it may assist those who are now struggling with the intricacies of basket making.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fine Willow Basketry While it is strongly urged that traditional methods be adhered to, the same argument does not apply, in the case of designs, and a large variety of pattern and an infinite variety of shape is possible, the latter being suggested by everyday objects such as boxes, bowls, vases, and other brie-a-bmc found in every home. The baskets of commerce can also be taken as models and produced in miniature as, for example, the familiar Christmas hamper. In this little manual restraint has been exercised with regard to the designs used as examples and the reader is recommended to master the traditional forms exemplified here before giving rein to his fancy. One thing is important. As soon as the novice gains some mastery over his material, he should endeavour to work strictly to a shape and measurements previously determined upon. Nothing is easier than to allow the work to get out of hand and if this happens it is useless to attempt to make it come right. There is only one remedy and that the drastic one of cutting down the work to the point where it started to go wrong and doing it over again. In the practice of basket-making speed is an important factor as the work is mainly a repetition of a few simple weaves or strokes. The expert attains speed not by strain and hurry, but by the elimination of all superfluous motions, a point to which the novice should give careful attention, particularly in the preliminary cutting out of material, For example, it is far quicker to slype all the stakes at one opera tion than to do each one separately and insert it in the bottom before doing the next. An hour or so spent in watching an expert basket maker will be an eye-opener in this respect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from How to Make Baskets: With a Chapter on "What the Basket Means to the Indian" The twisting and weaving of Nature's materials, grasses, twigs, rushes and vines into useful and beautiful forms seems almost instinctive in man. Perhaps it came to him as the nest-weaving instinct comes to birds - for at first he used it as they do, in the building of his house. Later shields and boats were formed of wicker work but how long ago the first basket was made no one is wise enough to tell us. Today Indian tribes in South America weave baskets from their native palms, South African negroes use reeds and roots, while the Chinese and Japanese are wonderful workmen in this as in other arts and industries; but basketry has come down to us more directly through the American Indian. Generations of these weavers have produced masterpieces, many of which are preserved in our museums, and the young basket maker need not go on long pilgrimages to study the old masters of his craft. Here at last, as in England, the value of manual training is being realized, and basketry is taking an important place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Basketry of the Coast and Islands of the Pacific, Etc: Exhibited April, 1896, at the Portland Library Pottery making and basket weaving are as old as the human race. As far back as there are any relics of humanity are found the traces of these industries, supplying no doubt a very positive human need. From the graves of the mound builders, from Etruscan tombs - far beyond the dawn of Roman power - from the ruins of Cyclopean construction, Chaldean antiquities and from Egyptian catacombs come the evidences of this manufacture. Aboriginal occupation of the American continents seems to be as old, if not older, than that of either Europe or Asia, and when we look upon the baskets and pottery gathered here we behold the results of an industry that originated in the very dawn of human existence and has been continued with but little change down to the present time. Our word basket has itself changed but little from its original, the Welsh "basgawd" meaning literally a weaving, or putting together, of splinters. The ancient Welsh, or Britons, were expert basket makers, and Roman annals tell us that the halls of wealthy Roman citizens were decorated with the beautiful and costly product of their handiwork. Made from whatever substances were most appropriate or convenient, they have been shaped by the needs and decorated by the fancy or superstitions of barbaric or semi-civilized peoples, and have served all purposes from plates to dwelling houses. In all countries and amongst all peoples they have had much the same shape and uses; their similarity seems to have been the result of a common evolution of the human mind to supply a common need, like causes and like needs producing similar results and similar construction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from More Baskets and How to Make Them The interest in basketry which began in this country some three years ago is on the increase rather than on the wane. This may seem surpris ing to the uninitiated, but those who have made baskets will understand it. Basketry has proved itself. In schools and social settlements one notes the contrast between the beginners' mats and baskets, loosely woven and crude in form, and the graceful forms and solid weaving of experienced young craftsmen. A well-made basket shows more than dexterity and skill: it stands for patience and stick-to-it-iveness, and has the value of all good work. Best of all, children love the craft and would rather weave baskets or wander afield in search of natural material for weaving or dyes than do anything else you can suggest. To grown people basketry is a boon. It is unusual to find a craft so simple as to require no tools or para.
