Saturday March 28, 2026
9:30 AM - 3:30 PM

The classic 10″ Shaker Cathead Basket was one of the most popular made by the Shakers. Its name derives from the fact that when it is held upside down, its shape resembles a cat’s head – the corners being the ears. Although the original design was borrowed from the Native American baskets, it was refined by the Shakers. Students can weave it plain or with a diagonal line through it (Twill pattern).

Age: for students 18+
