The typical example of this wrapped or bird-cage twine is to be seen among the Makah Indians of the Wakashan family living about N e a h Bay, Washington, and in the soft hats of Salish and Shahaptian.

When the weaving is beaten home tight, the surface is not unlike that of a fine tiled roof, the stitches overlying each other with perfect regularity. Such a simple style of fastening warp and weft together would seem to have occurred to tribes of savages in many parts of the world. Strange to relate, however, excepting in Washington and the ocean side of Vancouver Island, the process is not known. The exception to this statement is to be found in a few sporadic cases where, perhaps, Nutka and Makah women FIG.
