[Nfb-krafters-korner] crazy question, need help.

[Susan Roe]

This is called stick weaving and you can also use multiple sticks.  Many 
cultures did this sort of weaving, even our Native Americans.  Very easy and 
a definite different craft.  You can make cords, straps, pouches and even 
place mats.
