Youre suppossed to soak it before weaving but some of the strands just start to mush apart when they are soaked. I replaced those and then others started falling apart. Very frustrating. This definitely wouldnt last long as a basket anyways.
I ordered this reed last year for a project and it was perfect. It went out of stock and now ordering it again it isn’t the same. I’ve had it break so many times. I’ve already started using it, so a return isn’t an option.
This looked great when I got it but warning, you can not wet it as it curls right away and you can’t bend it dry or it will break. I did manage to make a basket with just spraying it but the reed is thin and the basket flimsy
4.0 out of 5 starsThinner than I thought but am sure it would be great to make a small basket

Bought this reed to make my own tobacco basket. It’s a little thinner than I thought but that’s my fault for not understanding the dimensions. I did soak it to help bend it. It started to curl from the sides and I thought all was ruined but it did straighten back out after leaving it wrapped together. I wanted to age the basket with vinegar but was afraid to after it was together that it would curl again. If I bought more reed to make another basket it would be thicker and wider. But I figured I would keep going with the basket and it was nice to learn with this reed. It was less expensive than other kinds.
