How to Weave a Willow Basket - Part 1

[@zzzzzz3708]

This helped me so much. What a great teacher. I made my first of many after watching this and was very happy with it.

[@zzzzzz3708]

For real I'm super greatful people actually teach real skills and I'm gonna use them and pass them down as much as I can. Thank you

[@jannieriksen9716]

This is really helpful, thank you.

[@roxannepouliot7341]

my question is how much willow of which length should I soak for this basket ?

[@rrradelle]

Hey ya’ll just go try it. These things are natural and a bit unique to each person. You will find something to calm your nervous system if you keep trying.

[@ironix1]

A little too fast and no close up details for an absolute beginner to learn from.

[@ЕленаКоробка-т9ж]

Сделайте замедление.

[@daisydaya]

Is the willow soaked before being used to weave the basket?

[@mdteders]

I would love to se parts 2, 3 and 4 but unfortunately cannot seem to find them?

[@rosiesmerdon18]

Hi, great video! Where can I find the other parts? Thank you

[@manhaeterlol7976]

[@kz6915]

Could this technique work for grape vine baskets as well?

[@mottafooka]

thank you! and you are a good instructor!

[@loadapish]

I collected what i think is white willow today but i dont have a clue... anyway i was wanting to give this a go. Do i need to do it before they dry out?

[@liavanson8687]

Nobody answered 😢

[@MYNICEEV]

A very AWESOME tutorial.

[@dannyingham5406]

Do I have to remove any bark from willow branches before starting project?

[@Lovelygreens]

No, you can leave it on. The willow in this series has the bark on :)

[@MaryannBorch]

Thanks for this :) ... But parts 2,3 and 4... can you link them to this part ? I particularly need help with the upset :)

[@CelticTouchHS]

Great explanation but camera work can't see what's happening well enough.

[@liavanson8687]

Do you need fresh wood/saplings? Or dried?

[@Lovelygreens]

Fresh willow or dried willow that's been soaked and is pliable again.

[@fortheheckofit8956]

I'm confused on how to sacure the ends when I've reached the size I want. How do you make sure they don't come undone??

[@Lovelygreens]

You just tuck them in. If they’re wedged in they won’t come undone :)

[@fortheheckofit8956]

@@Lovelygreens okay, thank you very much!

[@saramukhtaar3468]

Great video

[@bardotwood1866]

Very informative indeed.

[@carybrown3192]

Would be more informative if he showed what the over-under process looked like on camera!

[@bobbyesamdahl]

thank you

[@slumbass]

He sounds like Roy Moore. The Manx Tt radio commentator

[@Echosinfireify]

Thank you so much!!!

[@skolauprirodi]

whats name of wood you using?

[@Lovelygreens]

Look at the video title

[@skolauprirodi]

@@Lovelygreens i did not see 😀 sorry

[@Lovelygreens]

No worries 😁

[@WildRemedies]

Learning curve for sure... u make it look easy...I dont...lol

[@verybigkittens7550]

Sounds like a northern accent, is it Derbyshire.

[@Lovelygreens]

John Dog probably has the most Manx accent of anyone on the Isle of Man

[@karlbridge6842]

I'm sorry to say the same thing. About half as fast with close-up of every stage. Otherwise, for a beginner, it's meaningless.

[@verybigkittens7550]

Slight Scouse , so Isle of man accent.

[@pinkyx2147]

I'm afraid I had to look elsewhere for a tutorial, saying Things like 'goes in there' when the camera is not focused on what you are doing left me unsure of what you are doing

[@RickTOutdoorAdventure1969]

Bad demonstration. Too fast, no close ups etc
