Best book for gathering.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Baskets from Nature's Bounty (Hardcover)
This is one of the best books I have ever used on making baskets using recorces available to us in nature. It gives a complete list of different plants that can be used, where they can be found, the time of year to gather them, and how to prepare and dye them. There is also step by step instructions on different projects like coiling, twining and plaiting that one can make with the materials just gathered. I highly reccomend this book to anyone interrested in basketry or natural fibers

If you want to make baskets from local materials (any locality). Jensen tells you what to look for, how to prepare it and how to make a basket with it. Several techniques, many materials. Everything except bamboo and cane.
