While I was looking for basketry supply sources for an elderly friend, I stumbled across this website that I thought some of you may be interested in.

There is a wealth of information available there. You can either download the pdf's (so far all the ones I have downloaded have been free) or buy cd's with many many articles on them.
There are articles on costuming, lace making, basketry, fibers, dyeing and many other topics.
So far, I have downloaded 3 articles, but since I have dial up, it is taking me quite awhile. I am in the process of finishing the download of a pineneedle basketry book that was written in 1920.
