This is such a fun way to use leftover yarn to make something adorable AND useful! We'll use our time together to get started on our basket, cut/prepare yarn to make one, and start our stitching. It's a really fun knitting/crochet adjacent craft for makers, and/but no knitting or crochet or sewing skills are necessary!

Note that you may not finish your basket during class, but you'll have the skills and the
knowledge to do so on your own time.

Materials Provided by Instructor: 

• Class kit that includes: rope, a needle, a needle threader, and a how-to booklet with links
