    Great tutorial Hanna, splendidly explained.
    I love the chicken, she gives an air of authenticity to the rural craft . Thanks, nigel.

    Really clear instructions. Hopefully my struggle finishing off will be a thing of the past. You’re wonderfully soft spoken and the music that is played over your voice makes it difficult to hear you and detracts from what you are doing. The Chicken is noise is just fine :-)

    You are a remarkably talented woman! I appreciate the videos you have made and I know what a lot of work that is!! It can be hard to maintain the rhythm and pace of an artist when the online technology grid that you (so generously) use to make your work available can ask so much of you to "keep it up" . Thank you! Namaste.

    Hello Hanna, thank you for your videos, I am sure that many, like me, will be captivated by the craft as a consequence of watching these lovely introductions.
    I have a question about 4 behind 2. it makes a type of plait finish, while 4 in front of 2 makes a roll effect. apart from looks is there any functional difference between these two borders?

    • @HannaVanAelst
      @HannaVanAelst  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can make many different borders, there is a wide range of ways to make one. The 4 behind 2 is one I use a lot and a good one to start with. It is also strong and looks great. What border to chose depends on the thickness of your uprights, how wide you want a border to be, and the spacing between your uprights. Lots to consider. I think I have another video about that somewhere....

    • @BelfastBodger
      @BelfastBodger ปีที่แล้ว

      @Hanna Van Aelst The previous one went under one rod. So was thinking why the last one went under two. I know at the very end where all the remaining pairs go under 1,2,3,4 etc. But this is a bit confusing to me. Hope that helps to clarify my question.

    • @HannaVanAelst
      @HannaVanAelst  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is confusing yes but if you look at all the rods once finished they all go under two eventually. So when putting down a border the first one always goes sunder 1, second under two. It does nor need to make sense until you have done it many times it will eventually.

    And I need to learn how to make small baskets.
    Ever done a basket for an RC hot air balloon by any chance?

    Hi Hanna.
    I'm finding you videos extremely helpful while learning this basket weaving process, so thank you for that.
    I'm curious about the base of the piece in this video. Is the grid for drainage? I've seen similar ones elsewhere but am struggling to find a name for it. Would you be able to help?

    • @HannaVanAelst
      @HannaVanAelst  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not sure what you are referring to but I think you mean the slatted base in a skib, a traditional Irish potato basket? There are various reasons for starting off that way, one of them being able to strain potatoes through it.

    • @HannaVanAelst
      @HannaVanAelst  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Dave,
      Hi Dave,
      Hi Dave, I would recommend you let it dry out a little before weaving with it. Ideally let it dry out fully, then resoak to make it flexible again to stop it shrinking too much once made into a basket. But you could use it semi dry as well for practicing. I have other video's explaining about that. Good luck!

    I like so much of what I hear but the weaving moves you make that I am here to see are continuously blocked by your arm in front of the camera. It is frustrating not seeing what you do but then glimpsing the end result. Is it intentional?? Think about the viewers perspective if you really want to share and I hope you do as you are really skillful crafter. Thanks
