Skins were for clothing AND BUILDING TENTS

Skins weren't for building tents, they were for putting coverings on Ti-pi skeletons made out of wood and held up with rope. Skins were also used for boots, gloves, ropes, saddles, sheaths for weapons, pouches, bags, flags- pretty much anything a native American could think of. The native Americans believed in using as much of the bison as possible, so not even the scraps would have gone to waste. If you could justify the means, it was used or made.
