8. TWINED SPRUCE ROOT HAT Haida-style weaving; painted blue-green It appears that this hat was painted blue-green only, while No. 3 had a pattern painted on it, and was then painted over. Many Haida-style hats in museum collections have this finish, which may have been applied as rainproofing.

15. Twined Spruce Root Basket Tlingit Starting in the 1880s, Tlingit basket makers sold their wares in Sitka, Juneau, Ketchikan, and Wrangell to tourists who came to Alaska on steam ships. Often they would paddle out to the ships in canoes to sell to the tourists eager for souvenirs. Huge cruise ships still ply these waters today, although weavers have to compete with imported and mass-produced kitsch.
