Craft in America

Wasco basket maker Pat Courtney Gold

Pat Courtney Gold's baskets are based on the baskets of her Wasco ancestors using the full turn twine technique but she experiments with different materials and designs, with similar patterns and motifs. The materials she uses include cattail leaves, tule, dogbane fiber, cedar bark, tree roots as well as chenille, dyed wool, and other textured materials. Segment from the MEMORY episode
