Traditional Crafts – a Find from Lucinda Donaldson

“I found and excellent site on traditional Scottish basket weaving. It has a page dedicated to

Traveller basket weaving and the types of baskets we once made.

I’m going to take up basket weaving and learn not only Traveller basket weaving but

Scottish basket weaving as well. I want to learn tartan weaving and wood carving as well.”

Enjoy it, Lucinda – and please share pictures of your work once you’ve started making
things!
