A Tradition Woven Through Time

For thousands of years, cattail (Typha) has been used across the world for weaving baskets, mats, ropes, and even lightweight footwear. In Europe, early communities relied on cattail for crafting everyday essentials, while in more recent history, it became a favorite for strong yet flexible storage baskets. Known for its durability and versatility, cattail weaving is an eco-friendly craft that transforms humble natural materials into something both practical and beautiful.
