Tendrils are made in the same manner as Stems, using skiver instead of
basil leather, dry them quickly, and they will then be ready for use in
the following manner: take a tendril, damp it and immediately wind it
round a bradawl or a piece of stout wire, taking care to fasten both
ends of the tendril so that it does not fly off; dry it by the fire,
then remove it from the awl and a delicately-formed tendril will be the
result; arrange it and cut to length and form wished, and apply a coat
of stiffening to keep it in shape. Stems and tendrils are to be hardened
and stained precisely in the same manner as the leaves.
