I found weaving very therapeutic when our tamariki were young and I needed some time out just for myself. It's a very practical skill to have and very sociable, as I learned at a local marae in Hokianga in Whirinaki 1995. Hone helped me lots to prepare my harakeke so I could do some creations once the tamariki were in bed.
During this small wananga we will make a kete for your vegetables (onions, potatoes etc). If you want to make them bigger afterwards, you could continue to weave and turn them into washing baskets, or toy baskets for your children.
We will work in our garden under a great big tree. We will have some family members helping out this time.
Come with an open mind and a big smile. The only tools you'll need are your hands and kind thoughts about yourself.
No weaving experience needed but great if you already worked with it.
We are very much looking forward to meeting and weaving with you all.
We'll have plenty of space and our small group enables you to get quality learning but also safe social distancing ( with extra tutor helpers this time)
Please contact us if you have any questions at all.
