In UK, we call them, ‘a withy…withies”, which is very similar to the Swedish word and many other European names for them. They are usually made from willow.

Thank you! It's interesting that they're made out of willow. Ive never heard of that. I must try to twist one!

Thank you! Here in Northern Germany they took willow branches (pilgren)

[@OLORS]

Thank you! Interesting! Did they do exactly the same thing and twisted it? I must try that in that case.

[@augusthermann5111]

​​@@OLORS the German Word for Willow is "Weide" and the old word in dialect for the twisted branches was "Wide".

[@OLORS]

@@augusthermann5111 Ah, ok! In Sweden willow is also called "vide". :)
