I know in California they have these huge pincones that stand over 12
inches. They are great for decorating.

She uses the pine needles for the fill of the coil. She collects them in
California, they are particularly long needles from a particular type of
pine. I would think our White Pine would be similar in length, probably a
bit shorter though, than the needles she uses.

Joyce,
I'd have to do a bit of research. The question would be if they were green
or dried.

I wonder how pine needles are used for this? Susan do you have any idea?
Is it made with yarn and pine needles, so you don't use the cclothes line?

I know of a blind woman in California who makes them using pine needles.
She sells them at her local shop for artisans.

Sure. The ones I make are done using clothesline and yarn. They can also,
from what I've heard, be done with reeds of some sort though I've never
tried that version. Also, narrow strips of cloth, stitched together, can be
used in plaáe of the yarn, but I haven't done that. The yarn is wrapped
around the clothesline and the clothesline in turn is coiled around inthe
process.
