Hand-woven willow baskets bring a touch of rustic yet elegant beauty to your home. Jesica Clark, owner of the Hudson Valley's Willow Vale Farm, will teach you the traditional willow weaving techniques to create a small asymmetrical basket. This design, inspired by Polish basket maker Stanislaw Dzuibak features a round base woven in reverse pair, with stakes inserted, and the sides woven up in three rod wale and French randing. The asymmetrical element and border of the basket is then woven from the stakes themselves. Strong hands are a must!
