Adirondack Berry Picking and Gathering Basket Class at Adirondack Folk School

Adirondack Folk School
Location 51 Main St., Lake Luzerne, NY  12846

8:30 AM - 5:30 PM

This basket is a variation on an Adirondack Pack Basket, one of the oldest surviving traditions inside the Adirondack Park. You will use a continuous weave technique and hand shaping to create this wonderfully useful basket. Bridle leather will be used to weave the strapping and create a strap that will leave your hands free for blueberry picking or any other type of gathering. It also makes a great container to keep your yarn when knitting socks. The approximate finished size is 10" - 12" tall (width may vary). This is a challenging class with lots of hand shaping.
