Wolof women in rural Senegal utilize salvaged plastic strips and abundant dried cattail stalks to create these incredibly handy oval knitting baskets. A perfect way to blend storage and art, in any room of the home. Wolof women in the West African nation of Senegal update traditional coil weaving methods by enlivening natural grass baskets with colorful strips of plastic salvaged from a mat factory. Cattails grow abundantly in rural Senegal, so women can earn a sustainable income from basket weaving while enriching homes around the world with modern African craftsmanship.
