Traditional Craft Kits Twined Basket Weaving Kit, Gathering Style | DIY Basket Making Supplies, Includes Fiber Rush, Hemp Twine, and Photo Instructions, Beginner to Intermediate Craft

I really enjoyed this kit! The materials were easy to work and it was a great first time basket. My only criticism is that the instructions doesn't go over technique, just the steps that weren't always the best detailed. The additional videos also lacked instruction on two aspects I wasn't sure of (how to correctly force the shape of the basket at the start of bringing the walls up and finishing off the top of the basket when the rim has finished, I made due and figured it out) but overall still super worth it! I am a naturally crafty person so take that into account

I've learned to weave over 15 years ago. So rusty, but a great paper product to relearn. Don't use near water.

I've been watching Naked and Afraid (lol) and a lot of the participants had basic basket weaving knowledge which made me want to give it a try. This product has easy to comprehend instructions and when I had questions, I referred to the sellers YouTube page (@ found on instruction pamphlet) where they walk you through the steps! My kit came with more than enough materials for the project as well. My basket is a bit uneven (I messed up some of the weaving) but still super stable regardless! Awesome kit and inspired to keep practicing

Clear instructions, plenty of materials. I had extra and the basket is very cute!

I have made several Wildwoods Craft Kits baskets, and this is the first one where I felt there was insufficient materials provided. I following the instructions very closely and used a ruler to confirm that my weaving was tight enough, but I still ran out of thin weaving material. If you buy this kit, ignore where it says to make the open weave 1/4" apart and instead make it about 1/2" apart. Other than that, this is a great kit and a fun and useful basket design to make.

Instructions mentioned that there should be two sizes of paper rush, one thick and the other thin. Both paper rush cords I have received are indistinguishable by thickness from each other! The instructions are confusing and need to be numbered.

My daughter has already done several of the beginner level kits. She wanted another that was a bit bigger and had a handle. This was a Christmas gift and she has worked on it a bit and it is looking fantastic. Instructions are clear, and materials included. Turning into a great basket that will be useful, and she is honing her skills in basket weaving.

Overall, the instructions were pretty good. Considering you just start with a bunch of twine, I’m impressed with what I ended up with. I echo what other reviewers said- it ends up being not quite enough material but I made do. The end product is imperfect but I attribute that to my amateur skills. I think it was a pretty good activity. I would note that it did take many hours of rote weaving and took some pretty intense grip strength so I’d personally be wary of doing it with kids.
