Twist it into a long coil and tie the coils together with more material, weaving it in and out of the rounds. If not, then make the first coil by folding the twist back upon itself and tie it crosswise. Circle around this with the twist, tying occasionally as you go and pulling it into a pot shape. Again, these aren't meant for long-term use but as a quick carrier for the goodies you've found and need to get safely home. Clay Pots Clay pots come in all shapes and sizes, of course.
Coil pots are the easiest to make.
The wet your fingers and smooth the coils into one surface, both inside and out. These can be fired if necessary or dried if the clay calls for it. You can also roll out a clay piecrust and use a bowl to shape it, pinching around the top just like a pie. For specific types of baskets and pots, check out your local library for a good reference book and remember to have fun.
