"Looping and Coiling are both ancient techniques used to create baskets and textiles all over the world. In "Inspiration for looping and coiling" they have been explored not only for their functional qualities but also for the potential to provide the maker with a means of creative self expression.

The baskets in this book are the result of a very intense Workshop at the Danish Willow Associations' meeting at Ry Hojskole in the summer of 2009 where basket artist Lois Walpole provided the inspiration. the techniques are thoroughly explained with drawings, images and text.

Also included are images of some of Lois Walpole's exciting baskets and the continued work in looping and coiling done by the participants of the workshop."
