A great class for parent/child or grandparent/grandchild pairs. One partner will weave the Survival bowl, the other, a Mini Survival Bowl. Both baskets start with a solid wood base with spokes pre-glued making them ready for students to start weaving. Students will learn to twine with paracord as they weave with concentration on shaping, and then learn to fit and scarf a rim, add rim filler and lash onto basket. Linda will teach you all the techniques to make your survival bowl. The Mini Bowl is a cute little basket, and a great introductory basket to weaving with paracord and learning a matchstick rim. It is a simple weave concentrating on shape. The rim is a basic matchstick rim making a great accent to this little basket. There will be a selection of colors to choose from. Dimensions: 7? top diameter x 2 3/8? high. Mini: 4 1/2? diameter x 2 1/4? high.
