Dear Friends,
I wanted to show you my Mini Muffin Basket once again. I demonstrate this basket in my YouTube videos and take you through it step by step in how to weave it. Just go to my YouTube channel and follow right along! I call this a Mini Muffin Basket because it is just the right size to hold 6 mini muffins or 2 large muffins. You could also put a large muffin and a small bag of coffee in it.
Get you weaving supplies ready. You will need the following:
- 5/8" flat reed
- 3/8" flat reed
- 1/4" flat reed
- #3 round reed
That's it! Only four sizes needed for this sweet basket.
As always, if you would like to view any of my baskets, you can visit my YouTube channel at

We finish our basket! Today we do the final step to our braided rim and we put the bow on the front. Enjoy your basket! If you've made this basket I'd love to see a picture of it.
As always, this and all my videos are on my youtube channel HERE.
Happy Weaving,

Hi Friends,

Ooooo....It's just after Halloween and I have my scary face on! ; - )
In this video we twine the top to prepare for our braided rim.
Don't forget to post your projects for the week HERE. We want to know what you are working on!
Happy Weaving,

In today's video I will be weaving up the sides of the basket.
Remember those clothespins are your extra hands so use plenty of them for the first couple of rows. Also remember to keep each row packed down tightly.
Hope you are weaving along with me!

Nancy

Hi Basket Weaving Friends,
In today's video we finish the handle wrapping and I show you how to splice a wrap. I really try hard to get a piece of reed long enough to do the entire handle, but sometimes that just doesn't happen so here is how to splice it. Also, be sure to get creative when wrapping your handles. I just showed you one example, but you can do any design you like. If you have some pictures of wrapped handles, leave me a comment and I will link to you so others can see your baskets as well!
Be sure to visit my YouTube channel for all my videos HERE.
Happy Weaving,
Nancy
In this video we begin doing a decorative wrap on our basket handle. I also show you how to splice your wrapper.
As always, you may find all my videos on my YouTube channel HERE.

hahaha!!! Could I have a sillier face in this video! Seriously, I need to get some sort of video editor. Hope my picture makes you smile ; - )
In this video we begin lashing the rim of our basket.
Blessings,
Nancy
In this video I show how to taper and thin the reed on the rim where it overlaps so that it becomes just one thickness. I get the rim and filler in place. This video runs just over 6 minutes. You can watch it here on the blog as well as on YouTube and all my videos are together in one place on my YouTube channel.
Happy weaving!
Nancy

In this video we continue to twine and we are adding four more spokes to our base. This video shows how we incorporate those spokes into our existing base.
Happy Weaving,

In this video we will be weaving a round berry basket with integrated handle. This video starts explaining the base and how to twine a round base. You can also view it, and my other videos on my YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/basketmasternancy
I have to say one more thing. I know that the sound and the picture are not in sync with each other and it drives me nuts, but I have no clue what to do to prevent it. If any of you could tell me, I would be so appreciative. So for now, just look at my hands and the reed and not my mouth as you listen.
Enjoy and Happy Weaving.
Nancy
