Making Cord

I’ve always wanted to try making cord from cattails and iris leaves.

First step is to soak dried leaves
To anchor the cord I loop the ends around twine.
Here’s twisted cattail. To make this twist one piece one way and one the other. Bring the two sides together and they will twist on each other.
Braided cord from iris leaves.

I’m going to try using these to finish off the tops of baskets. I’ll do a post if it works out!
