Learn the basics of weaving and take home a basket at
Basket Weaving: Country Catch All in The Studio.
Instructor Bonnie Rideout will lead students in laying out a woven, filled base and tuck the filler spokes with the “chicken feet” technique. Students will also learn about starting and stopping and how to use a flat locking row.
Sea grass will be used as a rim and the baskets will feature a walnut accent color and two buttons on the front.
This County Catch All basket will fit almost any décor!
$65/person. Register here. Registration will close Jan. 23 or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.
