Basket making is a meditation as well as an art form. Basketry is one of the oldest known crafts, dating back more than ten thousand years.
In this class you will learn and use the twining technique to make either a 2” diameter plate or a little round box, just the right size for a ring. A lid can be made out of class. The material we use will be 4 and 7 ply waxed linen, in multitude of beautiful colors. One of the joys of crafting with this material is watching its transformation from natural substance to an art piece.
This class takes place Tue–Thu, June 30, July 1 & 2, from 10am–3pm.
Age and ability: 16 yrs. and older, beginners welcome
