    Event description

    If you're not sure how to approach basket weaving, then here's your chance to learn the basics with Qing.

    There are a number of different styles and materials used for basket weaving, and in this introductory class Qing will introduce you to basket weaving using thick paper. This not as fiddly or as time consuming of working with rafia, and it's not as tricky as using cane.

    Starting out with paper means you can learn with a malleable beginner-friendly material to get you going as you take on your first project - the basket.

    You'll receive a kit with all the materials, and in-person and take-home instructions to see you through to completion.

    This class welcomes absolute beginners!


    What will we cover?

    In this class we will:

    • Take you through all the steps of how to weave your own bag
    • Explore what kinds of materials that will work for this type of weaving
    • Learn how to start off your project, and how to finish off at home

    All materials provided.
