Basketry - the oldest craft
Try it yourself. By following the directions, you can create two beautiful, functional baskets -- a 10-inch melon-shaped basket and a 10-inch egg shaped basket.

More important, you'll understand the basics of basket-weaving and be ready to introduce your own ideas into your next basket -- your own special design, colors, and "wild" materials.

You'll be surprised how quickly you can weave these baskets, and how inexpensive the materials are.

Includes list of tools and materials needed, as well as resources.
