Basket Weaving: Weave a Shaker Cheese Basket

 Six-Hour Workshop

Weave a Shaker cheese basket in class with Caroline Lampert and Crystal Kitchens. Learn how to handle reed and shape a basket. This unusual open weave basket was used for draining cheese. The basket will be about 12 inches in diameter and 3 inches tall. It makes a decorative catch-all basket.

Bring a sack lunch.

No basket making experience is required. Basket making is wet work, so wear old clothes and bring a towel. The leaders will bring all the tools and other supplies you'll need for the workshop.

The maximum number of students is 12.  Call the Bailey Cove Library at 256-881-0257 or stop by to sign-up.  Open to adults and youth ages 14 and up. The supply fee is $5.
