Basketry from the landscape

Katie Grove’s guide connects plant gathering with hands-on basketmaking. It covers how to identify, harvest, and prepare more than 50 plants, then puts that material knowledge to work through 14 projects. The projects introduce nine techniques, including cordage, coiling, twining, and wickerwork. An illustrated harvest calendar organizes the seasonal side of the craft, while step-by-step photos trace the process from gathering materials through weaving. The book’s scope makes it both a reference to foraged fibers and a practical collection of basketry exercises.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in basketmaking and other hands-on crafts
  • Crafters who want to work with gathered leaves, grasses, vines, stems, or bark
  • Beginners or experienced makers seeking projects that demonstrate multiple basketry techniques
