DATE : Saturday 16th May 2020 @ 11:30am (UK Time)

I will be demonstrating how to make a wonderful little Faux Wicker Basket.

Please be aware that the one I make will look different to the one in the image as it was made with different type of string.

Although you are most welcome to make along with me on the day .. I will have materials prepared in advance to speed up the creation process. So while everything will be explained, some steps will be shown briefly before I Blue Peter it with a "here is one I made earlier!" ...lol

During the hangout I will try to answer questions while not sticking myself to the thing I am making lol.

I am working on creating a pattern for the basket shape which is available HERE TO DOWNLOAD

Strong Scissors or craft knife for cutting card

An Awl
A piece of light cotton fabric (max size 20cm x 20cm)
