January Weave and Breathe (2) - mini basket with French Randing

Monthly willow workshops focusing on basic skills, fun and well-being.
In January, we'll be making mini, french randed utensil baskets.
About this Event

We’re the Coddiwomplers—also known as Mrs B and Fidler—two willow weavers based in the South Norfolk, UK. Coddiwomple means ‘to travel in a purposeful manner towards an as-yet unknown destination’ which sums up many of our walks and various adventures through life.

We’d love to welcome you to our monthly willow-weaving classes for adults, where the focus is on fun, creativity, and a sense of wellbeing as we explore traditional basketry skills together. Each month brings a brand-new project—anything from birdfeeders to festive Christmas decorations. Come every month or just drop in whenever it suits you.
In January's workshop, we'll be learning the 'double French rand' weave to create mini wooden based baskets - perfect for utensils.
All tools and materials are provided, along with plenty of tea, coffee, biscuits, and of course, Mr F’s legendary jokes.

Thompson Community Hall is a modern building with good parking, facilities and accessibilty.

Doors open at 6:30pm, and we’ll aim to start weaving by 6:45pm. We hope to see you there!

If you are unable to book your place, let me know - I may well have messed up the event settings. The cat has broken out laptop and I'm trying to do this on my phone!
