Description: In this rattan reed basketry class, learn to weave an open cathead base and shape it into a graceful bowl form. You’ll finish the rim with a neat lashed edge, then add decorative chevrons to bring movement and texture to your design. Each step will be demonstrated with time to weave, ask questions, and receive feedback. This project will not be completed within the class but will equip you with the skills to finish confidently at home. Your finished piece will be 9"H x 12"W x 12"D.
