Pine Needle Basket Weaving Intro

🌲 Get your coil on—pine needles never looked so good!
Discover the ancient art of pine needle basket weaving in this welcoming, beginner-friendly workshop with Lorraine Lapekes.
You’ll learn the foundations of coiling, get comfortable with the tools of the trade, and practice a simple stitch as you start your very own basket. 🧺
Lorraine will guide you step by step, with plenty of hands-on help along the way. You’ll head home with your basket-in-progress, new skills, and supplies to keep weaving—including a needle, cordage, pine needles, and a gauge.
