Maori - Hawaii - Style fishing hook - Knot/Lash - How to?

Pages: 1 3 replies

Hello to all Tiki-Friends,

I am searching desperately and for a long time an explanation (step by step, How-To) on how to traditionally knot/weave a Maori - Hawaii - Style fishing hook.
It should be in the same way like on the following picture.

Unfortunately I have found no helpful videos on Youtube.
Does anyone of you have a manual for it?

Thank you!

Maybe you should ask this question on the tiki carving page. There are carvers there that are making these hook necklaces. Good luck and happy holidays, Wendy

Thank you so much for the video. I watched it all and learned a lot. It makes me want to make some of these in ceramic and then do the lashing. Very cool. Wendy
