Lin
Willow Weaving & Basketry
Lin has always been fascinated with willow weaving, she grew up in Wales and moved to Bristol for work. She was there for 15 years, which is where she first began teaching willow weaving for a project helping adults with mental health challenges.
Lin moved to The Forest of Dean 17 years ago and picked up her basketry and willow weaving and teaching this craft again 13 years ago.
She has been involved with The Rewild Project, the local Willow Bank and other community projects over this time and loves the satisfaction of keeping this ancient and important craft alive.
