A Handwoven Fairy Tale & Tutorial; How to Weave a Basket for Dolls

In this tutorial you will learn how to weave a basket for dolls or for yourself. Miniature basket weaving is a great way to learn the art of weaving because you can finish your project quickly when it's tiny. And you just can't get much cuter than a tiny hand woven basket.

I really hope you enjoy the little fairytale that's handwoven throughout this miniature tutorial. The blue fairy's first love is blueberries, and her second is basket weaving. How will she ever find room in her heart for a cicada prince?
