English willow basketry techniques,
By bvj54 "bvj54" (Colorado Springs, CO USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Complete Book of Basketry Techniques (Paperback)
This book has lots of great information on growing, preparing and using English willow to make baskets. The title suggests a more general topic. There are several example baskets with good instructions and diagrams, but if you're looking for instructions on flat- or round-reed baskets, look at Lyn Siler's books instead.
