What's on
Traditional Round Log Basket with Kirk
By Sue Kirk
-
Old Brewery Studios, 51-53 West Street, King's Cliffe, Peterborough, UK
Suitable for intermediate and advanced students only. Please note the underfoot base requires students to work stood in a ‘touch your toes’ position and then a kneeling position for some time. Please also note that the heavy rods used in this basket make the course unsuitable for those with weaker hands.
On this two day course students will use heavy home-grown rods to create a chunky and durable basket. We will start with a traditional underfoot base followed by a strong wale and randed sides. A nice simple rod border will be topped off with cranked rope handles.
