Stake & Strand BASKET MAKING! A 2-Day Workshop Feb. 10th & 11th w/ Mary Lauren Fraser!

Learn to make a round-base basket, otherwise known as stake-and-strand. Learn to make the slath, two-rod twining, staking up, 3-rod waling, French randing, a waled border, and handles of your choice. Take home a round-base basket to use for the rest of your life and the skills to make more!

This is a wonderful opportunity to study with basket weaver Mary Lauren Fraser!!! Mary inspires weavers from throughout North America to cultivate this traditional craft within their own local communities. Mary offers handmade willow caskets to local and greater New England community and supports the growing movements of green burial and traditional home funerals in North America. 

$200 workshop fee (with sliding scale available $150-$200, simply email us to request a sliding scale amount :) There will be an additional, minimal materials fee for the willow, due before the weekend.

Please note: this class requires a fair amount of hand strength.
