The Four Strand Braid Weave

October 5, 2016/5 Comments/in Basket Weaving Tutorials & Techniques, New Baskets /by Annetta K

Today I am releasing my new basket pattern, Twines and Braids.

Twines and Braids

This little basket is a technique basket, it has a fun beaded rim and it’s great for practicing the step up, (you will find my tutorial for step ups here) but the main point of this little basket is learning how to weave a four strand braid. So, in addition to releasing the basket pattern, I am going to post a woven four strand braid weaving tutorial.  I will go through it step by step, like I did with my three strand braid weave tutorial, and at the end you will find a link to my YouTube video tutorial.

Double X Basket Lashing with Waxed Linen

February 24, 2016/0 Comments/in Basket Weaving Tutorials & Techniques /by Annetta K

Today I am posting a tutorial on another way to double lash your basket. Last month, I posted ‘Lashing a Basket with Waxed Linen‘ and, in that post, I showed how to lash with waxed linen and how to do a V lash. This tutorial will show you how to lash a basket going around the basket once and creating a double lash with a double X on each lash. If you are new to lashing with waxed linen you may want to read  ‘Lashing your Basket a Waxed Linen‘ to learn how to start the lasher, add on, and end the lasher.

The Double X Lashing

Starting just to the right of the overlaps (to the left, if you weave left handed), secure the waxed linen and thread it from outside to inside in the next space.
