Basket and Cordage Class at Sacred Roots
Making Baskets & Cordage at Sacred Roots
This full day workshop focuses on making crafts from naturally harvested materials. We'll begin by processing and twisting Dogbane into strong practical cordage capable of binding saplings for a shelter, building a fish trap, lacing up shoes or stringing a primitive bow. Next we'll move onto the forest fringe to select and harvest different native and invasive plants that are ideal for making hand woven baskets. Students will then learn to bend and weave materials into a beautiful free form or spoked basket. All materials and tools provided.
9am - 4 pm. $65. Pre-registration required. To register: bushcraftforbipeds@gmail.com
