Join us for a relaxing, hands-on workshop that brings together craft, tradition, and connection to the Central Oregon landscape. Learn the timeless art of coiling with Ponderosa Pine needles as you create a beautiful and functional basket. Not only will you build confidence in your basket weaving skills, but you’ll also gain a deeper appreciation for one of the region's most iconic trees. You'll leave with your handmade basket, a weaving needle, cordage, a gauge—and the know-how to keep weaving at home.
When: July 12th, 10:00am - 1:00pm
Where: Sawyer Park, 62999 O. B. Riley Rd, Bend
Price: $65 + $10 materials fee
Number of Tickets: 18
Pre-registration is free; we only charge your credit card when we're ready to schedule (and you say ok). When 10 people pre-register, we'll set up the next workshop with your input on dates!
You’ll start by identifying and preparing Ponderosa Pine needles, then practice the art of coiling—a technique used for generations. You will be guided step-by-step so you can gain confidence creating your very own pine needle basket.
Every participant will leave with their basket, weaving needle, cordage, and gauge—plus the skills to keep crafting. Whether you want to make more for gifts or enjoy quiet evenings weaving at home, you’ll be ready.

Comfortable clothes for sitting and weaving—skip loose sleeves to avoid snags. Dress in layers; we'll be outdoors and take a short walk.
A notebook, pen, camp chair, and water bottle. We’ll email a handout before class.
This session is designed for adults and mature teens. Everyone must have their own ticket!
Bring a snack if you like.
