Susie "Toyadi" Charlie-Coleman was a North Fork Mono woman who was born ca. 1890. Susie is seen here carrying various baskets using a "carrying net" made from twisting milkweed fiber into string. According to Anna Gayton, Anthropologist, such nets were made by men and when loaded, the edges of the net were laced together carried on the back or chest. Woven pack straps of milkweed string were made to carry the net.Photograph Details
