Leg Rolling
Method
1. The leg
rolling method was started
with a few fibers of dogbane.
2. Using
the right hand, the fibers were rolled under
the palm against the right thigh.
Rolling was
done with a pushing motion towards the knee. This made a one-ply strand
with a S-twist.
3. More fibers
of dogbane were taken and twined with
the same method.
4. Then the
two sections of cordage were held together
with the left hand.
5.
The right hand pulled
the two strands together
towards the hip.
6. Pulling
the strands together towards the hip made a 2 ply cord with a Z-twist.
