The Central Pennsylvania Basket Weavers Guild held its final monthly weave day at Gravel Hill. Member Pamela Wilson lead the workshop. Members could choose between two different round reed baskets.
I choose to make the basket above. The Japanese inspired basket is woven with #3 round reed. It features a Rjinko base and a circle of eight Josephine knots. A rim of #8 round reed is attached with a series of three rod wale rows.
