Wonderful Kit!

I am a beginner and at first this kit looked a little daunting, but honestly it is pretty simple to put together and the basket turns out so beautifully! The instructions and video are great. All the materials that come in the Flax and Twine kits are nice quality, too. I love everything I’ve gotten from them so far!

Rope is too flimsy to make a solid basket even after adding additional stitches. The color is pretty but it's such a flexible rope that it affects the stability of the "basket" and makes it uneven no matter how much you attempt to keep the tensions even.

Hi Jennifer! Thanks so much for taking the time to provide your feedback. We understand that working with cotton rope as basket material can sometimes be tricky to get the tension right. You're correct that it is a little more flexible which makes it harder to shape as you go. If you're looking for a basket that has more stiffness, and is more traditional, try the Calliope or Autumn and I think you may enjoy it more! We never want anyone to be dissatisfied with their experience with Flax & Twine. We'd be happy to offer a refund if you'd like-- just email us at hello at flaxandtwine dot com.

Good,, struggling a little

I’m working on it now and I’m struggling a little. I can send a pic in a few days an show you my progress. It's a lot of fun just having a little trouble with how tight to pull the linen. But I have high hopes!

Hi There, thanks so much for your feedback! We'd love to see a photo with your prgress. The tension is the trickiest part of basket making, so don't be too hard on yourself. It just takes a little practice to get a feel for it. Sometimes beginners start or restart a couple times before they really get the hang of it. Sounds like you're doing a great job. Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any further questions. We're here to help!!
