Customer Reviews
I am still unclear how to end the basket. It’s a bit confusing to me
Otherwise the video is great and the basket is beautiful
Two attempts at the rope bowl. The instructions for how to finish the top of the bowl are unclear. When I tucked the rope to the inside and cut off the extra, it began to fray and came back out to the outside of the bowl which looks messy and unfinished. The twine bowl was difficult to shape around my bowl form and kept slipping up and moving out of place. Suggestions on a type of cord or rope that is more sturdy and does not fray would be helpful, but mostly the directions are unclear to me on finishing the bowl. I only have the written instructions with my order, I did not see the video which may have been more helpful.
I'm LOVING Flax&Twine dyed raffia for my wall hangings using mariposa stitch! And thrilled to make my first Twined Rope Bowl! I used some jute I had, which was a bit floppy, but it worked. Steps 11/12/13 took me a while to figure out. Wishing I had purchased the video.
Hi Clare,
Thanks so much for your kind review. We're so glad you love the raffia!
Regarding the Twined rope bowl, it ALREADY comes with the video!!! All kits (except for one or two exceptions) come with a video included!! You can find access to the video on page 1 of your pattern under Materials and Details. Next to the link, you’ll find the password. Simply type the link fully into your browser and hit enter and you will go to the Vimeo page for the video. Type in the password, and you should have access. I'm so sorry you struggled with the finishing part. I know that can be challenging. I hope the video helps!
Happy Making, Anne Weil

I used the linen cord with my handmade fabric twine. It’s adorable!
