Ursula round reed pattern

$5.00

This intermediate/advanced basketry pattern has 33 pattern pictures and 10 pages of instruction for weaving a round reed basket centered about a 6" round wood base. The "Focus on Techniques" includes twining, 3-rod wale, using inserted spokes to create a Serpent's Spine Border. "Ursula" creates a unique basket suitable for remotes, phones, dinner rolls or loose ends that just need a home. Spoke templates and "Common Techniques" are available as free downloads from this website.

The picture shown has a wood base with a "Sheleeart" style acrylic bloom coated with 1-2 layers of epoxy. These are also available for purchase within this store. This pattern may be scaled for a 4", 5" or 6" base. To achieve similar spoke gaps, the 4" would use (32) spokes, the 5" would use (40) spokes and the 6" would use (48) spokes. The weaver would be responsible for ensuring ample weaving material as the larger/smaller diameter may require more/less reed.
