In this workshop, learn how to create a stitched and coiled basket using locally gathered plant fibres.
Choose from a variety of plant fibres to form the ‘core’ of the basket, which is then ‘coiled and stitched’ together with hemp twine. Step by step guidance will be offered in material preparation, starting the coil, stitching method, shaping and finishing your basket. The day will include a wander through the park to identify suitable plants for weaving, as well as discussion on the history of traditional and contemporary basket making.
