  • Need a basket fast!?
    No generally me neither, but it's a fun challenge anyway! 😁
    Another random weave basket to add to the tutorial list, check out the playlist "growing and weaving with natural materials" for more from this channel and some others that I've used to learn!

    What happened to the willow structure that you made a year ago?

      Thanks for the question!
      Overall it’s still alive but what I’ve learnt is that having membrane (cardboard or similar) around each stem would have helped a lot, as they have clearly been stunted!
      For that reason plus not being able to get there very much (sadly our application to move onto our land is not going so well), has meant I haven’t done an update video.
      Trying to stay positive and learn what I can in the mean time using public space and wild fibres with in videos like this one 😊

    I love this! I live on the West of Ireland and there is a lot of wild willow around the house. You have definitely inspired me to try weaving with it. I love old fashioned crafts like this. Thank you for a great video.

      This quick basket is a great place to start, but there’s so much you could try and it’s addictive once you begin!! 😁

    I live in a city in Portugal right now but hopefully will move to a more rural area in the next few years and will try this then for sure! This sounds really fun and useful too!

      Well even with some heavy persuading she hasn’t set the UA-cam channel up yet, however if you check out ‘young rangers lanpeter’ on Facebook that’s where she posts most of her updates

      Wow, thank you!
      I find it humbling every time I get a comment from so far away!
      Do you have much wild willow around you?
      Would you give this project a go?
