Great kit, decent price
UPDATE:Moving my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars. I have purchased this kit a few times and always been pleased. It makes a nice basket, however, my most recent purchase included reed that I'm fairly certain was moldy, and not the best quality. See last three pics.This kit makes a very nice, large basket. All you need is included, plus plenty extra. Easy to follow instructions.

Easy to make
Easy to make. Either there’s an error in the instructions or I didn’t receive enough 5/8” reed. Had to use 1/2” reed for where it called for 5/8” (except for the rim). Still looks nice.

Great Sr Craft
Great craft for my elderly mother that can’t see well enough to quilt or paint anymore . Will purchase more items like this!

A great project...even for first time weavers!
Fun to put together, easy instructions, and comes with all the reed that you need. A great product! You will also need something to cut with, a bone tool, and craft clips to make the basket, which are not included in the kit.
