Dates & Times: Tues 9:30 -4:30: Fortnightly, Jan 13, Jan 27, Feb 10, Feb 24, then Mar 3rd.
Classes will run from the third floor of the Poldrate Granary Building.
To get the most from the intermediate class, students should have attended at least three terms of the beginners’ class or have gained basketry experience to enable them to create simple baskets independently.
I would like to help the existing intermediate class to progress on their round and oval basketmaking journey, perhaps introducing Irish weave. We can work on other projects such as belly baskets or potato skibs too if this is agreeable to them. I would like to see what the class want to do first before this is set in stone, and help them in their direction.
Basic basketry tools are available to use in the classroom, although students are encouraged to bring their own secateurs and/or other basketry tools, if they wish.
Jilly is a willow basket maker based in the Lothians. She has a particular interest in using traditional techniques including frame basketry, to design functional and decorative willow baskets and other structures for gardeners.
