Beginners Welcome

Add a festive touch to your holiday décor with a hand-woven holly berry basket. This generously sized basket is perfect for holding a centerpiece or Christmas cards. It also serves beautifully as a snack container or a bread basket, making it a versatile addition to your table. The basket measures 7 inches at the base, flaring to 12 inches wide at the top, and stands 6 inches tall, excluding the handle height.

The basket is woven on a Williamsburg handle, providing both an elegant flair and a shaping challenge that even experienced weavers will appreciate. The design is highlighted by a “holly berry” embellishment woven in dyed reed. A butterfly knot and diagonal dyed reed fillers provide added interest. Choose from red or burgundy reed for the woven “berries” and hunter or Christmas green for the “leaves.”

All weaving levels are welcome, including beginners. You’ll receive guidance every step of the way and leave class with a completed basket, ready for staining.

Bring a lunch, an old towel and dishpan for water. Wear clothes that can get a bit wet.
