1. Twining- Twine weaving refers to using multiple materials, one that is more rigid at the base and
another two that are more flexible at the sides of the basket. Twining is similar to weaving but
two strands are used to go under and over the ribs. Baskets made by twining can be quite
spectacular because 3 or more materials can be used to twine a basket. In twining basketry, you
need to be quite experienced as the strands have to be woven over and under the ribs in
opposite directions. There are also many variations to twining such as leaving the warp open or
twining on the diagonal.
2. Coiling/ Coiled Basketry-Believed to be the earliest basketry techniques used. This method is
usually employed for softer materials such as grasses. Strands of grass are stitched together to
form a spiral that is forced into a basket shape. The base material is usually a straw, willow,
palmetto or yucca, while raffia and horse hair are stitched together using a straw.
 3. Stake and Strand-Stake and strand weaving involve two elements: the rigid stakes that form the
ribs or warp and a more or the weft. This method allows the use of a wide range of materials as
long as they are flexible enough for the weft and rigid enough for the warp.
4. Plaiting- Plaited weaving involves weaving wide materials, similar in shape to ribbons, such as
palm, yucca, or flax. Both the stakes as well as the weaving materials are identical, which are
then woven together at right angle. The plaiting can be either open or closed. By using variations
of the basic plaiting methods as well as the wide range of materials available means that each
basket can be a unique masterpiece.
