A makers guide to sourcing and harvesting foraged plants to make natural cordage and baskets.Making with our hands is a fundamental human activity; connection with the natural world and the feeling of belonging to place are basic human needs. A counterbalance to our digitalised lives is the wish to connect with the simple joy and satisfaction of creating beautiful and useful objects, tapping into ancestral skills and wisdom and taking care of our world by reducing our ecological impact. Wild Basketry brings all this together in a rich combination of reflection and practical guide.Beautiful photographs take you through a seasonal year of seven basketry and cordage projects, suitable for beginners as well as for those wishing to expand their basketmaking skills. Ruby Taylor guides you through each step following a range of techniques, with suggestions for further exploration, to give you a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of the craft.Guidance on the principles of harvesting and processing plant fibres, and contextual information about the evolution of basketry, are covered throughout the book, along with spotlights on several inspiring international artists.

I was really looking forward to this book on basketry but felt let down. Pages were poorly printed, and some of the images were hard to see. I've tried a few projects, but they didn’t turn out as expected. I wouldn't recommend it if you’re looking for professional guidance.

Fun and Educational Craft Book
I bought this book for my kids to learn about making baskets from foraged plants, and it was a hit! The techniques are explained clearly, which made it easy for them to follow along. We've already made a few baskets from local weeds and twigs, and it was such a fun family activity.

Great Ideas, Lacking Depth
This book has some cool ideas for using natural cordage, but I wish there were more detailed instructions. Some projects seem a bit too simplistic. It’s a nice starting point, but I felt like I needed more guidance to really get into the craft.
