Seasons change and thats when we know it’s time, time to come together and go harvest the rushes and grasses. Listening to the elders we follow them to harvest, going to different areas each year to ensure a good harvest for the following year. We pull the grasses a couple at a time, ensuring to take the thicker ones for the core to weave over and thin ones to stitch with. After they dry we sit and weave carefully and slowly, making sure the stitches are neat and tight.
