120,00 $ · En stock
A complete set for a boy's Walking Out Ceremony: a grey camouflage bag and a zippered camouflage bullet bag, both trimmed in blue with braided blue and light blue yarn straps, a red drag string with blue and light blue leg straps, and two pairs of hand-knit socks. The Walking Out Ceremony is an important rite of passage for Cree children. At sunrise, usually in spring, a toddler takes their first steps outside onto the land, dressed in traditional clothing and carrying small versions of the tools they will one day use. A boy shows the role of the hunter, then comes back inside to bring gifts to an elder in his bag, and the family celebrates with a feast. Details: Bag: grey camouflage with blue and light blue trim and pocket, 31.5" (80 cm) yarn strap Bullet bag: grey camouflage with zipper and blue trim, 35" (89 cm) yarn strap Drag string: red, with 20" (51 cm) blue and light blue leg straps Socks: two pairs, one blue and light blue, one grey, white, red and blue Handmade, so each set is one of a kind
