Lise Bech is my basket-making hero. She grew up in Denmark but now lives and works in Scotland, not very far from where I live. She grows her own willow and weaves these amazing, organic baskets. I have always wanted to take part in one of her workshops, but I always seem to find out about them too late! So I was excited to find this video of her experimenting with unusual varieties of willow. I love the way she leaves the flowery bits just sticking out. Ace.
