The weaving steps of the back basket and the weaving method of the plastic back basket

The weaving process of the back basket generally has the following processes: bottom of the plate - weaving - pressing and forming - brazing - bottom edge reinforcement - piercing the cage bone lock - distinguishing the strap, etc. Give the bottom of the back basket, the slices circle the ground, and the bottom of the plate is round, as big as the mouth of the basin.

After the bottom of the plate, weave the silk, the silk is woven in a circle, and it is also a circle, and each circle must be carefully squeezed by hand, leaving no gap. The higher you go, the larger the circle, in the form of an open mouth, in the form of a horn. In the process of weaving, it is necessary to pay attention to the continuous pressing and forming, which is also a very important step, and the result of pressing directly affects the final shape of the back basket.

If the weaving process is not pressed in place, weaving into a back basket, it may be bulging and pinching, which directly affects the comfort of the user's back on the back. The reason why the back basket woven in Deru area of Xiangxi is easy to use, in addition to the requirement that the thickness is consistent in the process of cooking, the craftsmen have also done enough pressing work.

In my hometown in rural Sichuan, the transportation was inconvenient in the past, and I could only rely on my shoulders to grind up and down the hill, so how to carry things? Therefore, the bamboo basket, basket, gong, etc., with the back, with the flat shoulder, the hard-working villagers work hard every day to live, these bamboo products are necessary for each family, can be called an artifact.

Here's how to weave a plastic back basket:

1.Tools: plastic strips, scissors.

2.Weaving method:

1) First of all, arrange a few vertically. Take another one horizontally through the vertical row, and when wearing it, it should be carried out up and down, that is, two adjacent ones, one on the top of the horizontal bar and one below the horizontal bar.

2) Then weave the bottom part of the basket. Put a few vertically to the length you want, and then put the horizontal bars according to the above method, and arrange the horizontal bars to the width you want.

(3) Start weaving the four sides of the basket. Fold the remaining strips at the bottom and let them stand up. Then take one and circle around them, and the method is also adjacent to the vertical bar, one on the top and one on the bottom.

4) When you make it to the height you want, you can do it. Fold the excess part downwards and insert it into the hole of the braided part to press the end of the end.

5) Finally, it's good to adjust the areas that are not neat.

In order to solve the difficulty of carrying burdens, the people living here invented a basket that could be carried on their backs. The backpack on the shoulders can not only meet the needs of people to carry things, and the backpack that is full of heavy objects can also increase the weight of people, and does not produce center instability, avoids the shaking of the mountain road of single walking, makes it easier for people carrying the backpack to walk on the rugged and narrow mountain road.

Step 1: After beating the square bottom and preparing the required strips, start to weave the cage bottom, 5 horizontal and 11 vertical. First, two pieces of bamboo strips are stacked to form a cross shape, and then in the form of picking one and pressing one in the warp and weft directions.

After braiding 5 horizontal strips and 11 vertical strips, the bottom of the bamboo basket is formed. While picking one and pressing one, pay attention to the distance between adjacent bamboo strips, and the bottom of the woven bamboo basket is about 18*35cm.

Step 2: After the base of the bamboo basket around the basket is completed, you can start the longitudinal closing process, that is, the basket body of the bamboo basket. In the form of picking one and pressing one, the silk is bent up to the longitudinal direction and continues to add the silk, and the bamboo strip added at this time is called the fence.

Step 3: Wrap the canvas strap around the bottom of the basket and then fix it on top of the basket to form a backpack strap fixing method. Then use a thin wire to attach the canvas strap to the top of the bamboo basket, so that the bamboo basket can be carried on the body like a backpack.

Do not deviate from the Tujia transportation customs. The Tujia people mostly live in mountainous areas and are accustomed to carrying them. The commonly used carrying tool is the carrying basket, which is used to carry grain, firewood, chickens, pigs, and even children.
