Please note: this calendar is an aide to those wishing to book the hall and, as such, only shows those events taking place in the hall itself; it does not include village events and meetings of clubs and societies that take place in other venues, e.g. choir, gardening club or church events and services. For these, please refer to the newsletter.
On this calendar, dates and times for clubs, classes and societies will be correct for the upcoming month. Future months are correct as far as we know but liable to change, so dates will only be put on the calendar for the upcoming two to three months. Private bookings and one-off events are shown as soon as possible after booking and are correct unless the hirer amends details.
Join local basketmaker, Karla Pearce, for an introduction to stake and strand basketry. Karla will gently guide you through the process of making your own berry basket in a friendly, supportive environment.
You will learn how to:
* Create a slath and weave a base;
* ‘join rods’
* Insert side stakes and upsett them;
* Use waling as a weaving technique;
* Weave the side of your basket, creating shape/form;
* Lay down a simple trac border and insert a pegged handle
You will take home a beautiful useful basket that will last for many years! This is a great way to start weaving, but also a good opportunity to consolidate if you have made a round basket previously.
Cost £60
