- Creating a random weave backpack has been on my wishlist for ages now, and finally the MAMMOTH project is underway!
It part one of the backpack weaving tutorial I cover how to make the main 'vessel', attach a boarder and some temporary straps.
What did you think of the end result?
How may you have done it differently?

Thank you🌹
Wow, it turned out beautifully and certainly a very usable basket.
@@christinebarone2151 Thanks Christine!
It’s certainly been useable!
To make it even nicer to use though I’m planning on some more ergonomic straps and maybe additional pockets or a lid, not sure which to tackle first though 🤔
Thanks Jason, for sharing your invaluable experiences, and the VIEWS! Most definitely a beautiful backpack. i might give that a go.
Your welcome Debbie, really glad that you enjoyed it, and the VIEWS 😁
If you didn’t want to try something as big you can use the same method to make smaller vessels, like I’m currently making a small satchel/ handbag version.
The beauty is that you can be creative and make whatever shape you want!
Great work once again! I never would have thought to make a backpack basket but it looks good, seems very sturdy, and definitely practical. What a great idea!
Cheers Ben 👍
I’ve just not used it a couple times and it holds up pretty well, although I wouldn’t pack it full of heavy stuff because that may cause damage.
Perfect for some foraging materials and lunch!
This is SOOOOOOOO Beautiful, thank you :)
My pleasure 😊
That basket is brilliant! You did a fantastic job on the colours as well! Great video Jason!
Cheers 👍
One of the first basket I’ve made that I’ve actually got some use out of!!
Filling the flat up a little now, Alicias says I need to start selling some 😁
Great video and channel!
@@feyasterling Thank you, it made me really happy to see you came and watched this video after the dandelion one because I put SO MUCH more work into this one 😂
Any random weave project you would like to see?
Fantástico❤
Grazie mille!
Oohh really want to make one of these!! Anyone know resources on how much material you need for a certain size random weave?
Its really difficult to say because it totally depends on how tight your weave is and how small you want the holes to be.
This backpack used a good bundle of weavers (I'd guess at around 100 rods minimum)
Also I've learnt it always takes more than you think!
@@agreatalternative fair enough.. will just have to do some experimenting!
@@mkfrook Good luck! 👍
