I’ve recorded a number of video tutorials that are on YouTube. I’ve included links to them below. If you subscribe to my YouTube channel you’ll be advised when I upload more videos. In some of the videos, I may mention uploading files with templates and other information. These files are included below and have also been uploaded to the Facebook group, The Art of Pine Needle Basketry. To join this group, please click this link.
In addition to the coiling tutorials, you’ll also be entertained by videos of my two assistants, Marley and Olivia.
