Willow Asymetrical Basket

A foray into the world of willow basketry!

Service Description

An intensive day, aimed at beginners, using locally-grown, natural willow. The day runs from 10am to 5pm, although it may finish earlier. Come and have fun making your own unique and useful basket with Clare from Warwickshire Willow. Learn how to make a round basket base using traditional ‘stake and strand’ techniques before adding uprights and weaving the sides of your basket using a 3-rod wale. To complete your basket, you will create a simple trac-border & add a willow handle. Or You can create an asymmetrical top edge to your basket - something really special! Either option is available and will be completed in the day. This is basketry 'Larkswold-style', which means copious amounts of daily-baked cake, freshly ground coffees, and a plethora of tea choices (and alternative milk options). We know you will work hard during the day, so lunch will be lovingly prepared and hopefully refresh you ready to finish your masterpiece in the afternoon. All set in the lovely Larkswold Studio in Adlestrop in close proximity to Daylesford & plenty of restaurants and B&Bs in Stow on the Wold.
