I realize that I am not fully complying to the strict rules of Mona's excellent Friday Dare but I thought I would put a few examples on native designs we have here in our home. The socks an old Innu lady knitted for me as a retirement gift. Maliseet warclub given to me by Chief Abner Paul , his Hawk Clan heads sculpted on the dangerous end and his wife's Snake Clan on handle. My Inuit - Naskapi hat.Attikamekw walking cane with deer -hoof tip , Attikamekw "écuelle " or ladle sculpted from birch knot... hollowed out... , Attikamekw birchbark basket with beaver and moose etchings , same ladle with salmon etching on side.This one's for you , Mona ! Hugs !
Very neat collection.
