About the Course
STRAW PLAITING/ STRAW WEAVING
"Harvest Tokens" or "Farmers Favours" Workshop
2-3 hrs
Learn to make straw love knots and harvest tokens from wheat and rye, traditionally crafted as gifts or favours for one's sweetheart at harvest time, but also can serve as a talisman for the home.
You’ll learn a variety of straw plaiting techniques and leave with a selection of small pieces you can embellish as you like. These pieces make perfect holiday tree ornaments, too! You’ll work with heirloom wheat and other locally grown materials prepared by Bozena.
