Weave your own willow frame basket, at Oak Tree Farm Alpacas

Create your own rustic frame basket - a perfect style for a first basket, or to practice some key weaving skills.

We will set the frame and use the 'gods eye' weave to hold in place. We will add ribs to hold the shape and fill the weave. You will leave with your own unique (no 2 are ever the same!) basket, perfect for foraging, gathering harvest from the allotment or garden, or even to take shopping!

There will be a range of willows and if available, other usable rods for colour and texture - to allow us to get creative with the baskets too.

This workshop will be held right next to the alpacas who live at Oak Tree Farm!
