Education & Reference Crafts & Hobbies Art, Design & Photography
Basket Making by Olivia Elton Barratt is a 1992 hardcover reference that walks hobbyists through the timeless craft of weaving functional and decorative baskets. Packed with clear instruction and contemporary designs, it suits both young adults discovering the art and adults refining technique.
This copy shows gentle shelf love—light cover scuffs but crisp, unmarked pages and a firm, readable spine. Stored smoke-free, it’s ready for immediate use at the workbench or in the classroom.
A solid addition to any crafts shelf, Barratt’s guide covers tools, materials, and step-by-step projects that make learning basketry approachable and rewarding.
