My grandpa and uncle ...god bless both with Mic'maq tradition, love always

At 22 seconds in, the narrator speaks about how the Mi'kmaq" adopted the style but used spruce roots instead of splints used elsewhere". This is confusing, as the Mi'kmaq most places used splints instead of using the spruce root to make this style of basket learned from the Blacks of NS. So, I am not sure if this means that the Mi'kmaq in NL use spruce roots instead of splints that other Mi'kmaq use, or what is meant here. Thanks.

This film was good to see - thanks for posting it.

Ciao volevo sapere se si possono usare qualsiasi tipo di radici?

We have the same type of basket (and few variations as well) in Lithuania. It is called here a Potato Basket as these baskets generally used for potato crop gathering. They are mostly made of unpeeled willow. Sometimes to have a nicer look these baskets were also made of peeled willow or spruce root as well - for mushrooms or berries. The hoops were mostly made of hazel or spruce. I have weaved myself few of willow, but never of spruce root. My father did. Nowadays farmers used to weave these baskets of metal, using thicker steel wire for hoops and ribs, and weaving - with aluminium wire. Such basket lasts much longer but the look is nasty. Square weaved joints of two hoops are called "Potatoes" :). Thank you for sharing this tradition.

I have just finished a basket like in this vid. but using mulberry limbs for staves and handle and twisting the leaves of what we in Texas call ditch cane. Wish I had spruce roots! twisting leaves in as I wove it took me the better part of a day and when meeting in the middle it was quite hard to finish off. Thank You for the excellent video!

New Upload! Weaving Spruce Root Baskets While working with a new piece of software for sound editing I realized that I could use it to fix up this old video of my grandfather and my uncle working together for a documentary film. This new upload has the sound touched up to remove the white noise and was also able to recover some of the previously lost voices.

amazing. We should never forget these old tradtions. I am a semi retired Willow basket weaver from England.

I used to make those with my step father, Edward Young, who is also from Shallop Cove! My daughter wants me to get back into it and teach her as well. It is amazing the memories this video brings to me!

wow i got to say i learned alot as i watched this vid so much work and information i wish i knew how to make baskets like that and we hope you enjoy this video and please like and please subscribe thanks and please support this person and their vids

Keeping our "roots" alive, thanks for sharing

@VictumRoManius I go in game by "Romboldt", play on north american servers.

@jorper496 I hope it works out well for you. ^_^ Just remember to adapt, or you're screwed. Glad you like the shenanigans with the roommates, I figured a bit of comedy might go well. =3

Awesome! I just started playing and have chosen to go with Garren.. I think I will have to try this one out. Also loved the ending with your room mates lol

Stay tuned! ^_^

Holy crap it's Rafen! :D Thanks for the reply man, good to hear from you. ^_^ I yelled to attack the totem, lol. Accidentally hit a macro for ZA instead of piercing howl. I kinda noticed the credits too, it worked better in better quality. I'll be sure to fix it in the future. :)

Heya Korv, nice vid! I can't respond on the ShC forums since my account isn't active right now, but at least I can post here. I like the song. I wish I could read what you're yelling around 2:08, but not much that can be done about that on TH-cam. You've got some nice, big crits in there! Watching was making me want to renew and do some PvP. The end credits are a little hard to read, might want to make the red of the text brighter in future videos. Overall, very cool for a first vid!

In case nobody noticed, the second time my Ravager procs (the channeling bar comes up) I actually drink while spinning. xD

aye m8 very nice for a 59 =] !!! i play 70 ally to bad ur not on there :P

Sweet vid, "Vresity Three" :D

lol, I'm flattered. FYI though, Mahotep isn't frost. He's mostly fire, just enough points in frost for Imp Blizzard and Icy Veins (which is freaking amazing by the way)

Thank you, that was evidently the intent. ^_^ I was hoping the AoE would go well with the frantic section, it seems to have gone well. This was a practice piece, but I do intend to make more PvP videos in the future. My next aim is my 70 warrior. :D

My first video AND my first comment, lol. ^_^
