The craf t of basket ma k ing is ancient and versati le, and Heather K nowles has a passion for it. Her sk i l led work promotes the idea that baskets shou ld have their place, as natura l and beautif u l works of f unctiona l art, to be used time and time again – a far more sustainable option than the plastic a lternatives that have pushed this craf t aside.
