Twining Patterns With Natural Fibre

Two Days, 10am – 3pm

Immerse yourself in the endless joy of twining patterns, one of my favourite basketry techniques.  With a few new stitches you can transform your baskets into fabulously unique and varied works of art, and be ready for a lifelong journey of experimentation and self-expression.

In this intermediate course you’ll be introduced to a range of different twining shapes and patterns that will add fun, colour and experimentation to your unique creations. You’ll leave with a completed basket of your own design, or several different patterned starts that you can complete at home.

What you'll learn:

• Two different starts for twining with natural fibres

• A range of twining stitches to create an endless variety of patterns

• More advanced shaping techniques

• Two finishes including handles or hooks

This course is perfect for those with some experience, like the one- or two-day natural fibre twined basketry workshops. It’s a great way to extend your skills and start to realise your weaving potential!  

All materials for the weekend are provided, and being a small class you’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, experiment and trouble-shoot any problems. 

Come along and take your twining to the next level! But beware, you’ll never want to stop!

BOOKINGS ESSENTIAL as there are limited spaces available.
