'I have stacked some reeds on the other side of the yard. Pick up a bundle and bring it to the workbench. First, you will use a knife to remove the green skin and then slice the inside of the reed into thin strips. Next, weave the strips together in a crosshatch pattern. Once that is done, with cloth on either side, the papyrus is pressed beneath a heavy weight.
