5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended by Tutors, 19 Oct 2008

By	E. C. S. Sanchez "ecs_sanchez" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Complete Book of Basketry Techniques (Hardcover)

This book has been highly recommended to us by basketry tutors at college.
It is is very comprehensive coverage of basketry, with clear, easy to follow diagrams and instructions that lead you through the various techniques in making a variety of basket designs.
The concentration is, I would say, on working with willow (the 'harp' of basketry!), but these techniques are basic to using many other materials, such hedgerow materials, as cane (reed/rattan),even thin galvanised steel rods, as I once used for a project in a sculpture class, where I wanted to apply the basketry techniques that I had learned in willow-work classes with outstanding tutor and basketmaker, Christine Brewster.
