Digital e-books are An electronic book (also e-book, ebook, digital book) is a text and image-based publication in digital form produced on, published by, and readable on computers or other digital devices. [1] Sometimes the equivalent of a conventional printed book, e-books can also be born digital. The Oxford Dictionary of English defines the e-book as "an electronic version of a printed book,"[2] but e-books can and do exist without any printed equivalent.  Pages downloaded can be accessed from your computer at any time and printed as needed.

POST PRESS UPDATES: "A Basketmaker's Odyssey...Over, Under, Around & Through"

We apologize, but after the book was printed we discovered some errors.  These errors are

corrected in the digital version of the book, but not in the printed edition.

PRINT THIS PAGE AND ADD IT TO YOUR BOOK

NOTE: if you have purchased an electronic version of "A Basketmaker's Odyssey..."

these additions and corrections discribed below have already been changed.

_________________________________________________________________________

ABENAKI STYLE KNITTING BASKET

Page 11: Base size is Approx. 8 1/2” in diameter (the book says 6")

Page 12: Diagrams 1,2, & 4 show the” donut hole” instead of the 5” solid base.

_________________________________________________________________________

AMISH TRAY

Page 14: Unfortunately we did not say how to upsett the sides of this basket.Try to round them

up gradually without making a sharp crease at the base of the stake. If this is too difficult,

make a crease. It is not a bad thing. The corners of the tray have to be sharply upsett.

Also a source for brown ash, prepared and ready to weave is Gratiot Lake Basketry,

in Gratiot Lake Michigan. www.gratiotlakebasketry.com

ASHLEY'S BERRY BASKET SCARF

Page 21: The material list calls for two skeins of yarn. That is based each skein having 215 yds.

___________________________________________

CONFETTI TWILL

Page 38: The 26 stakes should be cut 24" long.

________________________________________

ON THE CONTRARY

Page 68: The stakes should be very heavy and the weavers should be of medium weight,

as is the normal practice.

__________________________________________________________________________________

PLAID OF MANY COLORS

Page 77: The graph has an error, row one, the first stroke should be "Over One", not over two as shown. See corrected graph below.

__________________________________________________________________________

SPIRALING DOUBLE WALL

Page 97: HOW EMBARASSING! I can't believe it, but we left out a sentence.

Just after "See Diagram 7", it should say, "Cut one of the 7 mm stakes off

flush with the base weaving, making the total 55 stakes".

Thus a continuous weave is possible.
