Willow Weaving 101


  • Edgewood Farm, Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill 3 Edgewood Way Truro, MA USA (map)

Monday, August 3 - Friday, August 7, daily from 9am to 1pm

Come learn the art of willow weaving! Over the course of five mornings, students will turn a pile of soaked willow sticks into round stake and strand baskets. Stake and strand is an ancient weaving method traditional to many parts of Europe and the British Isles. In this class we will cover twining, whaling, French randing, paired borders, and two kinds of handles. Students can expect to complete 2-3 baskets over the course of the week and will take home the skills to create more. This class is geared toward beginners but more experienced weavers are also welcome. Register here.
