Learn the basics of basket making (basketry) at this fun workshop. The finished basket is sized approximately 6-8" at the base and 5-7" tall, based on your own preference for shape. Its uses are quite versatile - Perfect as a fruit basket, bread basket, or to hold trinkets or small books around the house.
Add a plastic liner and you can use it as a decorative plant container too! Topics covered include reed sizing, styles, design of baskets, techniques for creating the base, shaping, continuous weaving and lashing.
Note: some grip strength is a plus!
