Very interesting and informative. Thanks for taking the time to do this video. Since I have an abundance of cattail in my area, I'd like to try this with it.

Really well presented, thanx! My son thinks weaving is too girly, this vid will show him :)
Also, need to tidy up basket at top, I couldn't possibly leave bits poking out like that... Will hunt out your other vids to c how it's done. Cheers AJ in UK

Interesting, but I'm been making baskets for nearly 20 years from natural willow. Willow gathered in the summer and green is not good willow for a basket if you want a good basket that will last. Cut Willows when dormant, in winter B-4 the sap flows in the spring. I store them in a dry place, and then Soak them to make pliabel when weaving. Now I've found you, I need to watch some of your other vids.

so, you can make a basket with cordage too...

What other types of wood could you substitute for willow for making one of these?

Buckeye is good as well, ant tree with pliable shoots and strong bark. You will have to research/experiment for your area-Cattail is good for baskets as well.
