Backpack Basket

Friday, March 19th - 8am-4pm

Have you ever needed a basket that hold all your fiber, fits on your back to allow you to still use your hands? This Adirondack basket has adjustable straps that will fit most people. A wooden base makes this not only a sturdy basket, but one that won’t let anything fall out. Starting with a woven base, the wooden base is attached to both the inside and out. 25 rows of start/stop weaving makes this a tall basket, shaping will happen from the first row and the last 9 (or so) will complete the look. Adding a handle and riming will finish the basket, and the straps complete the look.

Materials Required: None

Prerequisites: Intermediate - some experience with basket weaving
