Delia Fian on Instagram: "Exploring traditional plaits with silk tree (mimosa) bark! . I first saw this plait on a straw hat in the Appalachian Folk Art Museum @folkartcenter, and it blew my mind! Thanks @hat.plait and @herbert.press for writing such an inspiring book with clear instructions on how to recreate these designs. . . . #folkcraft #traditionalcraft #folkart #invasiveplants #foraging #rewilding #handcraft #making"
