Basketry courses, craft kits and handcrafted gifts

Basketry and basket making courses, live classes, kits and online workshops from UK makers. Weaving unspun plant fibres to make baskets is an ancient traditional craft practised across the world. Willow, reeds, pine straw, animal hair, hide or even baleen from the jaw of a whale can all be used to create useful and elegant baskets. The art of baskets may be simple and quick or highly intricate and decorative - this is a very satisfying craft to learn and practise!
