In this workshop we will make a “stake and strand” willow basket from beginning to end. It will be a small to mid-sized basket (8-12 inches wide at the rim). A great fruit or anything basket. We will also talk about growing and harvesting willow. Come prepared to work hard and know that weaving willow is tough on your hands and might not be a good fit for anyone with advanced arthritis. No experience necessary, anyone can do it! All materials and tools included. To see more of Shannon’s work and past workshops, check out her facebook page @whatcomwillowworks. Some participants may finish early, but class will be open until 5 PM.
Cost $130
