I am in love with this unique work that I found on this Flickr portfolio. There isn’t any information available about the artist, but if you know anything I would love to hear it.
I have seen these pictures on Flickr. This person is making exact copies of the work of a well-known weaver and stone sculptor. It is unfortunate that she is passing this off as her own creations.
The artist you are talking about is Deloss Webber. I don’t see ANYWHERE that this person is “passing these off” as their idea. I have made similar objects as an artist well before I knew Deloss existed!!
I guess if someone makes a Tamari ball, they must be passing themselves off as the one person who came up with the idea?! Or someone who paints the same landscape as someone else! Every brush stroke, every stitch, every photo taken is a step in the independent development of one’s own art.
If this artist has seen it somewhere else, made by someone else, and then made it themselves without crediting the other designer, then that is, indeed, “passing it off as their own”.
I am just now viewing the art because I Rock paint and this was posted on our site.
I get a little disappointed in people when I see them critique and put down another’s attempt to try a new art not matter who was first plus the original artist?
They are most likely honored and this skill possibly could have come from the Japanese culture 100000 yrs ago!!!

Many of these knots are traditional Japanese basketry embellishments. I saw Mr. Webber’s beautiful creations many years ago in Seattle. I have also seen them by an artist in San Francisco, at the Asian Art Museum.
Looking at many books, and trial and error, I wrote a booklet, with color photos on how to re-create some of the knots on a basket. I don’t give specific instructions for putting them on a rock, but you can certainly transfer the techniques once you’ve practiced them a few times.
I’m not agreeing or disagreeing with any of the comments above, but does that mean that Mr. Webber is copying Japanese basketweavers, and if so, how do you give credit when it is an ancient technique?
I am having some booklets printed at this moment. They won’t be here for a week.
$15 plus $2 postage in the U.S. I take Paypal, or you can send a personal check.
Just to be clear, my booklet shows how to put the knots on baskets. You can transfer this knowledge to rocks. I do have a supplement, which I will send you at the time of payment, that specifically shows how to put the first knot on a rock.
Hello Donna,I would love to get a copy of your booklet and supplement. I am in Canada but can certainly send you the US funds via Paypal. Please advise on next step.
Thanks, isobel
Hello, I happened upon this comments string, and am also interested in the booklet your are selling. Please let me know if this is still available? I see that these comments are from 2016.
Hi Donna,
I just bought your lovely book. Where can I buy the cane/reed? It is 11/1/2019 today and my email is pennyshrawder@gmail.com. I appreciate any help. Thank you!
Penny
Hi Donna….I would also be interested in buying your booklet. I learned one knot from a nice Taiwan lady when I was recently on vacation there. I learned another knot from a tutorial but am finding it hard to find tutorials on these beautiful knots shown. Please let me know what I need to do.
How many wrap instructions are contained in your booklet? Looking at the pics on this site, are all of these included? If so, I would like to purchase a booklet if it is still available. Once I hear from you and have your account info, I will pay via PayPal. Thanks!
hi Anita,
There are 7 knots, and two wraps. My instructions show how to put them on baskets, but you can transfer the knowledge to rocks quite easily. I do have detailed instructions and photos for putting one knot on a rock. The others will be quite similar. You’ll have to contact me through my blog, as I can’t see your email. donnacrispin.blogspot.com

Thanks!
I am very interested in your booklet on rock wrappping and the supplement you offer. Please send details as the amount and shipping costs. I live in British Columbia, Canada.
Donna – do you still send out this booklet and the supplement? I would love to have them and happy to pay you for them & for any mailing and handling costs.
If you are not, any information you could give on where to get instructions would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
This isn’t working, Isobel. Please feel free to check out my blog, donnacrispin.blogspot.com (And everyone else.) I’m a basketweaver, and I also make paper cord in the Japanese manner, for weaving.
Dear Donna, I have been searching fir a long time for instructions, as I am also wanting to wrap some rocks with cane. Have done a bit already with waxed linen.
Please tell me how I can order your booklet.
Thank you so much!
