We’ll build our foundations using the random weave technique with rehydrated willow rods. Then it’s time to play. If you want to stick with ONLY locally farmed and forage materials we’ll have vines, bark, cedar cones, cordage making supplies, dried flowers and seed pods and other fun things to play with. If you want to branch out to other materials, I have half a dozen different natural twines and some surprises to play with.

Every wild weave will be different, so let your imagination go wild and tell your inner critic to be quiet!

The fun doesn’t end when you leave class…you now have a home for all your wild goodies. Decorate with flowers, seedpods, feathers, mementos – whatever makes you happy. Even change them up with the season!

I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

Class registration is NON-REFUNDABLE. However, if you want to sell or give your spot to a friend, I’m happy to welcome someone else in your place. Due to the nature of the projects (materials/soaking, etc) and the small class sizes, I’m unable to support refunds or credits.

About your teacher: Erin Cox is a talented and knowledgeable weaver, crafter and artist with a special reverence for plants. She’s also been a willow farmer since 2024, when she joined the SnoValley Tilth Experience Farming Project in Carnation. She honors the cultural significance of farms, which historically have provided much more than food, including baskets, trellises, medicine, wool, and more. Her classes showcase a variety of unique weaving projects, leveraging some plants that you’ll see here on the farm.
