Beginner Basketry: Coil Basket

Students will create a basket using rope as the core materials and raffia to coil around it. We will start with an explanation into basketry and the possibilities of carrying the project further through patterns. We will also review how raffia can be substituted for other materials such as yarn or fabric. No experience is required.
