Over three days you will learn how to create the beautiful spiral French Perigord basket (bouyricou), a traditional basket used in horticulture from the Perigord and Dordogne regions in France. The basket is made entirely from willow.

]Day one involves getting accustomed to the overlocking plaited weave and how to hold and shape the basket, focusing on the base.

You will then make your basket over days 2 & 3.

Making this basket requires strength, dexterity and determination. Leah was taught in the Perigord technique by Corentin Laval, Barie, France.

Please bring secateurs, large bodkins and a knife if you have them.

Dros dridiau byddwch yn dysgu sut i greu basged droellog hardd o'r Perigord Ffrengig (bouyricou), basged draddodiadol a ddefnyddir mewn garddwriaeth o ranbarthau'r Perigord a'r Dordogne yn Ffrainc. Mae'r fasged wedi'i gwneud yn gyfan gwbl o helygen.

Mae diwrnod un yn cynnwys dod i arfer â'r gwehyddu plethedig gor-gloi a sut i ddal a siapio'r fasged, gan ganolbwyntio ar y gwaelod.

Yna byddwch yn gwneud eich basged dros ddiwrnodau 2 a 3.

Mae gwneud y fasged hon yn gofyn am gryfder, deheurwydd a phenderfyniad. Addysgwyd Leah yn y dechneg Perigord gan Corentin Laval, Barie, Ffrainc.

Dewch â secateurs, bodkins mawr a chyllell os oes gennych chi nhw.
