a tip about willow bark, if you don't need the branches you can peel the bark off without killing the bush/tree, the bark will heal and then you could go back to the same bush/tree later in time and get more bark, but if you keep cutting the limbs off you may kill the whole thing or just make it take a really long time/years for it to grow again. willow has many uses please don't kill it if you can help it. :) at least think about it.

@NancyToday i think that the bark would shrink more than the "dowels" would

When your pieces dry out they will all shrink and be loose. Are you going to dry them before using them? You say they will tighten when they shrink, but the willow will be smaller in diameter and slide around in your bark, eh. Thanks for showing this technique. I usually put the four through cracks in the other four. I'll try this.

Nice vid.. Perhaps you could make it more centered so we don't just see your arm instead of the basket in places?

I've made baskets like this using jute twine (and packing twine) I'm sure you can substitute just about any material that's strong and flexible enough

Could you use cattail rushes instead of the willow bark? I have a pond near me that has willow and cattails, and I have woven mats with the cattails a couple times before.
