Class #32 – Gently Rounded

This lovely, tall basket is woven in an over two under one twill pattern using 140lb watercolor paper painted with acrylics and cut into strips using a pasta maker. The rim is lashed using waxed linen. Techniques specific to weaving with paper will be covered, along with twill design and an emphasis on shaping. This class is for intermediate weavers with cathead experience. Although a full kit will be provided, material preparation will be discussed.
