Are you ready to weave? This full-day Weaving Retreat will help you cultivate creativity, calm, and connection as you learn the ancient craft of coil basket weaving. You can weave with premium raffia, special pandanus fibers, or vintage fabrics—mix and match as you like!
You will learn the skills to create baskets, vases, wall hangings, earrings, and more—just in time for Christmas! The workshop covers four stitch styles, allowing you to focus on one or learn them all. All materials are provided, along with a wholesome vegetarian lunch and tea/coffee.
This event has a maximum of 12 participants, and all genders, abilities, and expressions of identity are welcome.
Basket Weaving Bliss takes place at the Lithuanian Hall at Highgate Hill, in inner Brisbane/Meanjin.
You are invited to bring along a Nature item that represents your decision to attend the weaving retreat, which could be a leaf, rock, flower, stick, or anything else. More details will be provided via email in the week prior to the event.
