About this event
Everyone is welcome to join this engaging class, regardless of your experience level, even if you have never woven before. Jessica from Wood Thrush Wilderness will give step-by-step directions, and you will walk away with a skillfully crafted, finished basket of your own creation that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. The Harvest Basket is a square-round basket with leather or wooden handles, functional for gathering your garden vegetables, apples, or scavenging finds. The material is flat and half-round quality reed. Weavers will have the option of adding colored reed if desired. The large harvest basket has an approx. base size of 14”x14” with 10” height. The extra-large basket has an approx. base of 16”x16” with 10” height. The Farmers Market Basket is a beautiful and versatile basket that you can take with you to the market or wherever you want/need functionality with style! Crafted from high-quality reed that is both flat and half round, this basket exudes durability and charm. Designed as a square-round basket, it offers a unique twist on traditional shapes, making it a standout piece. It features two convenient straps that can either be comfortably worn on your shoulder or easily carried by hand. Personalize your basket by incorporating colored reed and straps into your design, allowing you to create a basket that perfectly complements your style and preferences. Let your creativity soar as you infuse delightful pops of color into your very own one-of-a-kind basket. Join us for this exceptional weaving experience, where you will not only learn a timeless craft but also foster connections with fellow enthusiasts. Take home the pride of creating and the joy of owning a truly functional work of art.
