    They cut a scraw. of earth with the grass on top of it about the size of the cliab they were to make. The cliab was about two feet long and one and a half wide. Then they would get the strongest of the twigs they put them around the scraw about three inches apart. Then they got the smaller ones and they wove them in and out through the bigger ones until they had it finised. They put two handles on it one in each side made of twigs.
