Nut Basketweaving Class with Anna Liebmann

Date: Tuesday 2nd December, 10am - 4pm

Course Details:

Join master basket weaver Anna Liebmann for a fun and sociable basket weaving course and create a beautiful and useful Nut Basket. This shorter, one day weaving course is designed to introduce working with willow to students, who will weave a stylish boat shaped basket suitable for holding a small amount of fruit, nuts, the contents of your pockets, etc!


We will be making a gorgeous slender shaped basket from stout ribs and very fine coloured willows. Each student’s basket is likely to take on its own unique character, and people will be able to use Anna’s homegrown organic willows in striking different colours to enable this! Attention will be given to the grading of the willows and the shaping of the pieces, and each person will leave with their own masterpiece.

Suitable for beginners and improvers. It’s a great place to start if you’ve never woven before, or if you’ve taken one of Anna’s classes with us already this is a brilliant additional skill to add to your basket weaving repertoire. Willow weaving is a physical task, and requires a degree of hand strength.

  • Tea and coffee are provided but participants should bring their own lunch and utensils
