Join us at the shop and learn how to make a peg basket! In the 18th century the “keeping room” was off the kitchen, a place for family and friends to gather. Storage space was limited so baskets served the purpose of shelves. No experience is necessary to make this easy basket that can hang from a peg, nail, chair, or doorknob; great basket for beginners. You will learn continuous and start and stop weave, how to make a rounded spoked bottom, lash on a rim, and add a leather handle. The finished basket measurers approximately 6” x 9”.
