straw work

Jan 02, 2006 2 Replies

I have looked (really, truly) but am finding it very hard to find comprehensive instructions on making plaited straw hats. Can anyone help? I am also looking for instructions on making plaited ornaments from straw / wheat etc. I think it was a traditional harvest tradition in parts of the UK. Thankyou......Amelia in Australia


Amelia, I might have something on hats - I made one about 10 years ago. It might take a couple of days to dig it out, but I'm not working this weekend, so will see what I can find. Maybe something on ornaments too.
