Bamboo weaving handicraft course

The manufacturing method of the bamboo basket is as follows:

Material preparation: a large number of bamboo strips of different lengths.

Operating steps:

1, hit the bottom of the bamboo basket. Our premise is that the bottom of the basket must be done first, so we need to use bamboo strips. We weave the cage bottom with offensive strips, longitudinal 1 1, transverse 5. We first fold two bamboo strips into a+shape, and then weave five horizontal strips and 1 1 vertically in the warp and weft directions, respectively, and form the bottom of the bamboo basket after weaving. When we pick, pay attention to the distance between adjacent bamboo sticks.

2. After we finished knitting the bottom of the bamboo basket, we clamped and fixed the small wooden board and the plastic honeycomb board with screws, which will strengthen the bottom and reduce the difficulty of knitting. Then we tied the bamboo sticks together with ropes to facilitate the next knitting (the cage of the bamboo basket).

3. After we have finished the above steps, we still bend the bar in the form of picking one and pressing one, and continue to insult vertically. This step is called wai ou insult. We make the next lap according to the rules, and we must pay attention to the size of the basket when we surround it.

4. By analogy, we will bend and fix the previously laid bamboo sticks longitudinally until all four sides are surrounded by a column of bamboo baskets, and then add a fence according to the above method and add it to the desired height. The height of my knitting here is about 45 cm.

5. To repair the border of the bamboo basket, we need scissors here, because our cloth strips are circled, so there will be redundant bamboo sticks, so we will cut off the redundant bamboo sticks with scissors. Then we wrap the outer bamboo stick bent from the bottom around the place where the top is inserted into the weaving opening of the cage, fix the cage with it, and break the inner bamboo stick bent from the bottom along the opening of the cage. After this operation, a flat basket mouth will be formed.
