Round-Bottomed Black Ash Bushel Basket
Course Overview
A tisket, a tasket... how about a bushel basket? Craft your own bushel basket using black ash splint. The first part of the class will be spent preparing black ash splint for your basket by pounding a locally harvested log. Next, you'll weave the basket and finish it with a rim and two mouse-ear handles, using a free form weaving technique. The finished basket will have a 16” diameter and stand 10” tall, which is just about a bushel. Beautiful yet practical, you’ll find countless uses for this lovely basket.
