Learn to make a coiled basket!

- Learn how to make your own coiled basket using raffia and yarn. Unless you are very speedy, this will be a project you will start at the library, then finish at home.
- It’s a great way to use up your leftover and odd balls of yarn!
- Adults and teens welcome.
- We will provide materials, but you can use your own yarn if you prefer.
