About The Event
The Small Egg Basket is woven on an oval and round hoop, and measures approximately 6”x8” and about 7” tall. The weaving is a continuous weave over ribs that are placed behind the God’s Eye. The God’s Eye is the diamond shaped weaving that holds the two hoops together as well as creates a tension hold for the ribs. This style of basket would have historically been used to gather eggs.

You will have the opportunity to choose your own accent color. Bring a sack lunch.
