Creative Basketry: Looping
On this six-week evening course at Morley College you will learn several variations of looping, as well as looping around a core, to produce round vessels as well as rectangular pouches.
Plaited basketry
You will learn how to use the versatile technique of plaiting to create different shaped vessels (straight, diagonal and skewed) and different border finishes. You will add colour and texture through the use of overlays, and also learn about hexagonal plaiting, a more open lightweight weaving technique.
