Field notes
The archive follows willow from dormant-season cutting through sorting, drying, re-soaking, construction, and aftercare. It gives concrete working ranges, including 60–90 cm pieces for small work and 100–150 cm pieces for ordinary baskets, while warning that soaking time should be checked by bending the material. The page also distinguishes peeled from bark-covered willow and assigns different uses to each.
