When I saw Sally Pointers tutorial on how to process burdock fibers into a coil basket, I knew that this would be the first mission for my bone needles.
Watch her three-part series for in-depth instructions:

The only thing I did differently was the use of a elderberry tube as a gauge instead of brass, otherwise I followed her recipe pretty closely.
I plan to use the baskets (so far I made two of them and I still have a lot of fibers left) to sort and store my flint flakes, as they tend to get lost easily.
