Creative Basket Making

by Lois Walpole

This book features two types of basket making - stake and strand, and plaiting. The author explains what tools and equipment are needed, and how to prepare the materials she uses, which range from cane and willow to cardboard and plastic tape. All techniques are covered in detail with step-by step instructions and useful guidelines on aspects of design. There are 12 projects based on the author's own designs, ranging from simple bowls and table mats to more complex shoulder bags and linen baskets.
