| Miwok Grasshopper Stitch Basket 3.375" x 6.75" This is truly one of the rarest baskets a person will find. Miwok baskets are scarce enough and the Grasshopper stitch is used only by the Yokuts, or so we thought. Made with the Miwok stick and bundle foundation this basket employs a form of weaving usually only seen in Yokuts. The top rim is sewn to the second coil for about an inch. Then a gap where the top coil wraps around the top bundle only. Then again the top coil attaches to the second coil again. This gapping is called the Grasshopper stitch. The Grasshopper stitch is found only in Yokuts American Indian baskets. 1890 - 1900 | |||||||||||||||||||
