Handmade Baskets from Nature's Colourful Materials

摘要

This colourful and practical book was first published in 1994 and has just been reissued. If you are keen to try basketmaking using hedgerow and garden prunings, then this is an ideal introduction to a less conventional form of handweaving. The author first lists the basic tools you will need, followed by an overview of the types of trees, shrubs and climbers which will yield suitable and attractive material, and when and how to harvest and store it. The types of farmed willow available for purchase are also discussed.
