Weaving A Triple-Twined Fruit Basket
This month we will use a combination of round reed and twisted seagrass to create a medium-sized bowl with a braided rim, made from the round reed spokes. The sides of the bowl will be triple-twined with seagrass and two pieces of dyed, round reed. Your challenge will be in shaping the bowl. Your completed bowl will be suitable for holding apples, oranges, or other fruit. Alternatively, you could line the bowl with a napkin and fill it with bread or pastries, or just use it plain for decoration. The class is suitable for all levels of weavers. Be sure to wear your play clothes because we soak the reed in water for flexibility. You may wish to bring a towel or apron. Students are welcome to bring drinks and snacks, if desired.
Wed., July 14, 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Instructor: Meredith McCartan; Cost: $30, plus $10 for materials.
