Spend a hands-on day learning the traditional craft of willow basket weaving in the beautiful setting of Abbey House.
This single-day workshop is ideal for beginners or anyone curious about working with willow. You’ll be guided step by step through the process of creating your own round basket, learning core techniques of basket weaving, bordering and handles. Throughout the day you will be introduced to each technique and the tools required and given guidance as you apply your new skills.
All materials and tools are provided, so you can simply turn up and get weaving. By the end of the day, you’ll head home with a finished basket and the confidence to explore willow work further.
