Choose your own weaving adventure!
“Come to Amahami where the breezes blow
Come to Amahami where you weave in rows…
Answer the everlasting call - Come to Amahami it’s the best of ALL!” - Loud Amahami Song
Each year, I head to Deposit, NY for a reunion with old and new friends and have a day set aside for weaving.
Join me in this fun weaving workshop.
Interested in gathering your vegetables or apples in a basket this year? How about with a basket that you made! Choose between three baskets: Bike Basket, Gathering Basket, or Harvest Basket (descriptions below). We will go through the process of making the basket step-by-step ensuring all will walk away with a finished basket. This class is for any basket-making ability, from beginners on up. Join us to make a beautiful basket and learn a skill for life!
Bike Basket – Finished size is approximately 6” × 10” at the base with a height of 8.” A classic design made from premium reed and finished with durable leather straps for secure, stylish attachment to your bike. Note: If you prefer, you can use this basket as a tote with cotton straps instead of the bike basket (or leather shoulder straps, which will be available for purchase).
Gathering Basket – Finished size is approximately 10” x 10” at the base with a height of 8.” A wooden swing handle stretches to 14” in height.
Harvest Basket - Finished size is approximately 10” x 10” at the base with a height 8”. This basket also comes with two wooden handles. (The Harvest Basket photos below are 2”-4” wider)
