Fall cattail pens and india ink One of my favorite things to do is to harvest a few cattail stalks in the fall and use them for india ink drawings & sketches It's so easy to do, and they last years • find dried cattails • cut at base and trim off flower at top • carve them to a point • add a slit for more ink yield • dip in ink and draw! Some cattail stalks are hollow and some are not...both of them work differently, grab one of each and try them out!
