About this event
Description
We're sorry, but this activity is over. The last meeting was Saturday, April 13, 2024.
Nancy is back at it again, teaching you how to weave a basic, long basket that you can use on the counter or table top. It includes a handle and is another mid-range basket for those who have taken weaving classes with us before, or those that have a little experience or exposure to the process on their own.All weaving materials will be provided and there is a supply list of household items that participants will need to bring. We will work through lunch so everyone will leave with a completed basket. Be sure to bring lunch, snacks, and drinks.
Materials to weave the basket will be provided but you must bring some tools with you to class.
