Extra Large Curvaceous

Welcome to our online shop. All baskets contain organically grown willow and are posted in plastic free wrapping.

Hand woven baskets made at The Old Brewery Studios

Welcome to our online shop! We are selling contemporary and traditional baskets and small woven works for those of you on a budget. All pieces are made in our workshop here in King's Cliffe by my husband Kirk and myself using willow grown organically here in King's Cliffe. We also weave with willow from the Somerset levels and hazel grown by Hugh Ross and Carolyn Church at Pipewell woods, near Corby. Kirk makes most of the traditional baskets and I make the contemporary baskets. New work will be added to the shop regularly.

The cost includes delivery and packaging. All items are carefully packaged in plastic-free materials. Allow 3-5 days for your purchase to arrive.

If you would like to commission a basket contact Sue to discuss your order.

Our 2025 Workshop Programme

There are spaces available on the following workshops in 2025.

If you are a beginner and want to try willow weaving for the first time we have three fabulous tutors who will be teaching here in April and October. Judi Evans will be teaching Spring Garden Structures and Round Shoppers. Emma and Stuart from the Coddiwomplers will be teaching Bird feeders as well as Spirals and Plaits. They are all experts in teaching beginners and have some fun projects to teach. These introductory courses are designed to give you a flavour of working with willow.

If you fancy working with materials other than willow, we are also offering the following courses:

*Ply-Split Braiding with Helen Leach using cord, wool, cotton and linen.

*Random Weave Baskets with Polly Pollock using glossy lapping cane cane and paper yarn.

*Arch and Nut Baskets using rush and hazel with Nadine Anderson.

Judy Simmonds will also be here in November to teach the beautiful willow Celtic Knot Basket which is an incredible structure, held together with tension and balance.
