Class Description
Logan’s Basket
First introduced during a weaving demonstration at the Hansen Museum’s Arts & Crafts Fair in Logan, Kansas, Logan’s Basket is a distinctive project inspired by the traditional Market Basket. Its unique shape makes it both practical and versatile for everyday use.
In this hands-on class, participants will weave their own Logan’s Basket, finishing it with a traditional lashed rim and completing the process in just one day. To give the basket its warm, natural patina, the final step will include dipping it in a Black Walnut solution.
Previous weaving experience is preferred. Makers will leave class with a beautiful, functional basket measuring approximately 15” x 10 ½” x 10 ½”—a timeless piece ready for everyday use.
