Willow Kits
If you’d like to try your hand at weaving, there are several different kits available.
Each kit comes with step-by-step instructions which are easy to follow. Please note that the willow has to be soaked for a few days before you can make the sculptures, apart from the Scandinavian Stars.
All prices for kits include postage within the UK mainland. To place an order email me here.

Crafty Feedback…
“Myself and a group of friends were let down by another willow artist, so contacted Katherine to see if she might be able to support us with our hopes to make willow hares. She came back to us immediately, and our timing was perfect as she was in the process of preparing a kit to explain how to make willow hares at home!
We were provided with an excellent booklet that she had written which takes you through step by step, with simple, easy to understand text, supported by photographs. The kits were delivered in plenty of time ahead, and we ran our own self-guided hare making course last weekend.
It was such an enjoyable day. Interpreting the instructions rather than being told what to do added to the fun. Once the hares had their ears attached they took on characters and names - exactly as Katherine had predicted. We were able to do it at our own pace, support each other and all thoroughly enjoyed the day and experience. We ended up with 6 amazing hares, all looking completely different from a character perspective, but technically the same.”
