In the world of willow basketry, there are an infinite number of techniques to learn and perfect. Join visiting Guest Teaching Artist Jo Campbell-Amsler for a willow class focusing on rib-style techniques, following the designs of many century-old basket styles. Learn about willow as a basket material, using wild and cultured, harvesting, sorting, and preparing for weaving. Discuss and practice a variety of common techniques such as making frames, lashings, handles, and rims. Construct three or four baskets and make a variety of samples for future reference. This workshop is suitable for all skill levels, but hand strength is a must – willow is a strong material.
