The Ring Border Basket is a challenging and rewarding intermediate level basketry workshop. Students will brush up and sharpen their twining skills during the first day of the workshop while making the basket base. There will be many colors to choose from to create a dynamic combination.

A stunning Ring Border will bring this basket to completion. Student baskets will measure approximately 6” tall by 18” in diameter.

During all three days we will discuss the importance of tension on the materials, hand/finger placement, shaping, and materials selection. The Ring Border Basket uses multiple diameters of round reed that have been dyed with cellulose fiber dyes. All weaving materials have been selected and prepared for ease and flow during the workshop.
