The days are still cold and the nights are long, but, hopefully Spring isn’t too far away. Here is a very simple project you can do now that will get you ready for the foraging season to come.
Enjoy

Bushcraft and bubbles😂 love it. It is great to see people sharing knowledge to the younger generations. There needs to be more of us

What a wonderful outing with the granddaughters! Girls are definitely in need of survival skills. My father made sure I had lots of survival skills as an autistic female little girl. Blessings to you & your family! Wonderful legacy for us all to learn.

What a wonderful educational video. I appreciate you showing up close how to weave. Really easy instructions. I don't have willow but am going to try with saplings of mulberry.

@sirwheato Год назад

Great video. I’ve never really thought about basket weaving in the woods before, but now I really want to give it a go

@168Diplomat Год назад

It was great to see that next generation having fun.

@jamesmiddleton6464 Год назад

Bubbles are always an improvement. Good to see the ladies out with you. I hope they will always understand how important time with dad is .

@asmith7876 Год назад

It’s amazing that skills that were once essential for life are now hobbies to be enjoyed. We don’t have that beautiful hazel here but we have other shoots, and honeysuckle vine is ubiquitous and is commonly used. Now I gotta go weave me a basket!

@sammyslavvu1981 Год назад

Those young ladies stole the show Neil. Great video as always.

@poopsie3765 2 месяца назад

Love this video, very informative and great demonstration thank you for sharing and love the bubbles too 😁

@garywood702 Год назад

Something I've often thought about doing, but never have. Thanks for posting this! Looks fun and something I'll definitely try in the near future.

@TheDavewatts Год назад

Great project, been threatening to have a go at this for years 👍🏻

@rodneycabot356 8 месяцев назад

Awesome survival skill, the way the bubbles fly off ever so gently, I’ll have to take my daughters out bubble blowing so i can try and weave one of these baskets

Thank you ever so much! I love egg baskets, as they call them here in US. It looks strong, is what i wanted to learn to make! Got me some oak sprouts and honey suckle ready to go!

Lots of fun, this one! Good to see Hazel and Ivy out and about with you! Cheers

Really enjoyed this video, thanks a ton!

@nickthecrip1 Год назад

Brilliant vid,(as always) . I've done similar but used the brambles for the handle and rim too.👍

@maveraver Год назад

One of your best vids yet Neil, hope all is well with you and yours - Spike

@rh645 Год назад

Lovely vid mate, great therapy for the coming storm as i empty house to go off-grid in a fortnight. This is the first thing I'll try when i can chill!

@gregsanderson2470 Год назад

Good times with grandkids. Some friends immigrated from Russia. Their job was to make this style of baskets for their village. They have passed on, now I know how they did it. Thanks. The sad thing the county just mowed down my willows. Oh well. They'll resprout in the spring.

@jacksonteller1337 Год назад

We have knotted willow trees (knotwilg, Salix Alba) along the water at the edge of most farms. Pruning them for the farmer gives us a bit of money and the twigs necessary. It is a traditional way to get the production materials we need and the trees get a pretty knot at the top of the trunks.

@leslieaustin151 Год назад

This was great, thank you. “Never perform with children or animals”! I realise what I like about your channel - plenty going on, lots of good ideas, and all with minimum expenditure. A great recipe for fun and learning, rather than spending yet more money on ‘tat’! Thanks again! Les

Good morning from Syracuse NY USA everyone across the Pond

@jacksonteller1337 Год назад

Good afternoon from the low countries, stay safe and healthy brother 👍

@earlshaner4441 Год назад

Thank you my friend

@organicgardenmamavictoriab2768 8 месяцев назад

I'm attempting to make one now with willow. I need some brambles

@four._.tai.l2296 6 месяцев назад

Hi kids❤.

@fayeyother7336 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for this video. Exactly what I've been looking for. As you are weaving the two loops together, if the bramble snaps do you carry on or do you remove it and start with a new one?

@greencraft4783 8 месяцев назад

You just carry on, using the same pattern. I hope that helps. Glad you enjoyed the video.

@Chris66able Год назад

Very skillful, and a useful basket. However there is no way on Earth a guy like you wanders around the forest, looking like Little Red Riding Hood, gathering edibles with that cute little basket on your arm !

@caitlinhill2040 10 месяцев назад

Will weeping willow branches in the summer work for this? And what is the reccomended length/width of the willow branches

@greencraft4783 10 месяцев назад

Yes willow will work. They will want to be a metre, at least, but not too thick

@caitlinhill2040 10 месяцев назад

Thank you! I’m making great progress with it so far

@organicgardenmamavictoriab2768 7 месяцев назад

I need to grow blackberries

@FiremanFrach Год назад

Great video. What happened to your Casio tough solar?

@greencraft4783 Год назад

I still use it daily at work. I like to put the other one on when I'm off.

@FiremanFrach Год назад

@@greencraft4783 Ah, I get it. I rotate my watches also. Thanks.

@CherokeeTwilight Год назад

Off topic, but does anyone know where BCB folding stoves are made? Company is in Wales, fuel is made in UK, but I can’t confirm that the stoves are made in the UK.

@organicgardenmamavictoriab2768 8 месяцев назад

Are brambles berry vines?

@greencraft4783 8 месяцев назад

Yes, blackberry.
