Wicker has been used to make baskets for thousands of years. It’s woven from flexible plant materials. In Basket Case, those materials are twigs, bark strips, and vines.
The coloring of wicker and baskets made from bark strips vs. twigs might seem backward at first. Remember that bark strips are the flexible inner bark of the tree after the brittle outer bark has been stripped away, so their color is the same as the tree’s wood. On the other hand, twigs are covered with thin, flexible bark that’s the same color as the rest of the bark on the tree. So twig baskets are colored like the tree’s bark.
Wicker comes in three sizes—small, medium, and large.
There are three basic types of wicker:
- Twig wicker (made from wood-specific twigs)
- Bark wicker (made from wood-specific bark strips)
- Generic wicker (made from vines, generic bark strips, or generic twigs)
Obtaining
Large and medium wicker require a crafting table. Small wicker can be crafted without a crafting table.
Recipes for twig wicker
To make wicker from twigs, you must have cordage to bind the twigs together. The recipes shown here use twine as cordage. See the cordage page for a full list of options.
Recipes for bark wicker
Recipe for generic wicker
Generic wicker looks identical to oak wicker, but it’s crafted from different ingredients. Generic bark strips and twigs are only available if you’ve configured Basket Case to not allow wood-specific baskets. Generic wicker can be crafted from vines, including ivy and willow vines if compatibility with Biomes O’ Plenty is enabled in the Primal Lib config options.
The recipes shown here use twine as cordage. See above for more items that could be used as cordage.
Using
Crafting ingredient. Wicker can be crafted into baskets. Small wicker makes small baskets, medium wicker makes medium baskets, and large wicker makes large baskets.
Fuel. Wicker can be burned in a furnace. Small wicker burns for four seconds, medium wicker for five seconds, and large wicker for six seconds.
Configuring
In the config settings, wicker can be tweaked in the following ways:
- You can choose to prevent wood-specific baskets.
- If you prevent wood-specific baskets, only generic twigs and bark strips from Primal Lib will be present (if configured to be turned on in the Primal Lib config). Generic twigs and bark strips can still be crafted into wicker, but it will be generic wicker that looks like oak wicker.
- If you allow wood-specific baskets, then generic twigs and bark strips will not be available. Instead, wood-specific twigs and bark strips will be present for crafting into wood-specific wicker.
- You can choose to disallow small, medium, or large baskets. Doing so also prevents that size of wicker from being crafted. For example, if you disallow large baskets, then large wicker cannot be crafted.
