    Inspiration and Techniques

    Amanda's inspiration for her weaving comes from the wonderful colours she grows and harvest and as the willow dries the colours change and mellow, every variety has its own subtle qualities. She loves to combine this with driftwood she finds on the beach and from the shapes of branches fallen in the woods. Some of her favourite techniques you see here are fitching where 2 strands of willow are woven alternately as a single band in the middle of a basket- this looks simple but takes practise and skill to get it right and it’s lovely to take the rods around again to create a chain-link effect.
