# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Basketry - Willow Peg Basket
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 29 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: Help use up some of the instructor's seeming bottomless stash of wild and cultivated willow!  All willow will be soaked and ready for your use.

This is a small (6" high x 6" diameter without handle) willow basket with a handle.  Similar baskets are used in Europe for clothes pins, but you can use yours for whatever you want.

Weaves will include twining, 3-rod wale, and slewing weaves.  A 4-1 border plus a roped handle will be used.

Note: Working with willow requires hand strength, so if you have arthritic hands you may find willow challenging.  If you have an allergy to aspirin, willow could also be a challenge since it was the original source for aspirin.
