Basket Making - Cherokee Double Wall Basket

Create A Basket with a Twist!
Discover the magic of weaving a basket with two walls! In this hands-on work-shop, you’ll use a simple over-under weave and round reed to create a round basket. Then, you’ll turn around at the top and weave back down over your work, using the inner basket as a mold to form the outer wall. This clever technique results in a strong, double-walled structure that’s both functional and beautiful. Emphasis will be placed on shaping, and you’ll have the opportunity to personalize your basket with a selection of colored accent weavers. This project is ideal for those with beginner to intermediate basketry skills. If you're trying this for the first time, reasonable hand dexterity is recommended. It’s a fun and rewarding experience you won’t want to miss!
