Weave a willow Catalan tray

Spend a leisurely afternoon learning how to weave a willow Catalan tray, sometimes called a tension tray. They make great trivets for hot plates, or if smaller, soap dishes, or larger fruit or bread trays. This is a gentle introduction into willow basket making, perfect for beginners.

Jilly Greig is a full time basket maker living and working in East Lothian. She loves teaching her craft, and has a full list of workshops available this coming autumn and winter, teaching beginners and improvers. Try this tray out, and see if you would like to carry on learning more about the world of basket weaving.

No tools or materials required, Jilly will provide them, along with light refreshments.
