Description
Pre-requisite: Should have some weaving experience, either with Nancy the instructor or previous hands-on. This functional basket is made using the same general construction as both the Bread Basket and Market Basket, but due to its size, it is not suitable for a first-time weaver.Weave a big, beautiful 15”x12”x12” basket that will hold lots of stuff: books, toys, blankets, etc.
You'll learn to manage the shape of a larger basket while refining your weaving skills. Materials to weave the basket will be provided but you must bring some tools with you to class.
