Willow Weaving Workshop

(Dragonfly)

Experience Willow weaving under and around the encampment of Vidor Vidor (the name is from old Norse, meaning Willow, the forest warrior) from Svartland Vikings.  The activity is suitable for those with little or no willow weaving experience. The age is 16 and above, Good coordination is required. You must let me know if you are left-handed, at the start of the season. 

Learn how to secure the rods to the base, and weave the bottom border to give the basket its strength and shape. Then add 4-foot rods to give the basket its height. Another set of rods to secure the top and then how to finish the top.  This basket will not have a handle, but one can be added on Sunday at 5.00 pm for an additional £10

The session will last as long as it takes you to complete the basket and will start at 17:00  Saturday 26th July 2025.
