Weaving Highlights
|
| Weaving and basket making are used by
therapists in rehabilitation programs partly because the
craft creates a sense of satisfaction and is something
most people can master with very little training - at
least for simple projects. It is possible to create
a very respectable simple basket in less than a day, too. |
