This two-day workshop is suitable for beginners and those wishing to explore different weaves. If you already have some basketry experience this is an opportunity to create your own design.
You will first create a traditional round basic base and secure the uprights with a pull-down wale followed by a three-rod wale as we weave up the sides of the basket.
Lorraine will show you how to French Rand using a pair of withies simultaneously.
Further waling is then followed by the beautiful asymmetric border securing a bow handle.
Refreshments will be provided.
