  • A materials section with a detailed list of plants that can be used in your basketry practice 
  • A how-to section

 

Stunningly designed and illustrated, these pages serve as a compendium of beautiful makers, guiding the reader on a range of basketry techniques; some with an interesting twist on the traditional. It will invite the viewer to explore different mediums, plant fibres, and recycled materials to use in their own sustainable, creative practice.
