So glad I found this channel; it’s like running into an old friend. Love all your prior work. This video came up in my feed as I was trying to learn to make something useful out of the wisteria vines I’m trying to eradicate in my yard. You made my day! Can’t wait to watch more!
Amazing, I found this video just after I'd checked out an audiobook from the library about traditional crafts (Cræft). Written by..... Alexander Langlands! The writing in the book reminded enough of the narration in this video that I googled the author and it led me right back to this video 😊 great work both on screen and in your books. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us Mr. Langlands!
I am delighted to have found this channel. I frequently watch the farm series' and hoped for new content. And here you are. Looking forward to your future endeavors. Thank you.
I hope this channel is successful for you. My wife and I love your work on the Historic Farm series. Your so talented and knowledgeable. A joy to watch!
I heard about this project during your interview on The Poor Prole's Almanac. What a pleasure to see you still enjoying these kinds of projects and sharing your knowledge! I'd love to see more of this kind of thing if you ever have the time. I was so pleased to hear your dressing up in costume and experiencing history in real life are not done forever, either! Enjoy the delights and trials of having a young family (I know it's a busy time!) and I think all us Wartime Farm fans will look forward to seeing you on a new project someday. 🙂
Love these how to's! I've tried a few things from the different shows. Sometimes a bit hard matching the natural resources used with what I have here. lol It's fun experimenting though!
I’m looking forward to learning this so I can make some baskets for gardening and maybe my spinning stuff. I’m also pondering if the brambles could be retted and treated like flax for spinning.
i knew that voice sounded familiar!!!! loved you on the historical farm series!!

Thanks for telling us about the book! Just ordered a copy!
People will probably be surprised how much of (some) basketmaking uses your whole body. Thanks for posting this series on-line! (LOVE your book)

Such professional videos, nice to see you again and wartime farm cup is a nice touch
This is such a good video - thank you - I wondered what kind of tool is that you are using to split the cane?
Great video. Please, who provided the beautiful music?
I’m in grasslands here in the USA. Not much “bramble” hereabouts unless you count tumbleweed. Still loving this tutorial!
You can also use grown raspberry plants too

Raspberry plants aren’t woody.
Thank you for this content!!!
Thank you. This is beautiful
Can you split canes of rambling rose in this way? I have an overgrown area with many canes 3 meters in length!
Worth trying. If they’re woody, they’ll probably work.
At what time of the year shall I harvest bramble for basket making?
What's the knife called you use to spilt the brambles
I was wondering that too
It's a pruning knife. His is an Opinel- it's called a billhook knife on their website.
Thank for sharing all your skep know how and techniques. Can bamboo strips be used in the place of this Bramble or Willow cane?
for how long do the canes store before using them for basket weaving ?
What do you call that type of curved knife ?
What music is this??
Just finished watching Victorian farm on amazon 🥺 didn’t want it to end.
RIP to Lord Acton. He passed in June 2020.
Bongloads of info here,couldn't I split w razor blade secured to table?
What is brambles scientific name?
Please post your Book. 🙋♀️
this is grouse ... thankyou
There is a youtube telling about beehive making with split brambles. They use a splitter made out of a pice of wood splits is 4 at once
The splitter is three nosed, at least the ones we use are and there is an easy way of clearing the thorns ,still it setts the scene for some people .
I already have have a hoarding problem-- i shouldnt be hoarding bramble too
He is making hard work of a simple split ,keep trying
