Day 2 - Activity 1 - Weaving a Tall Tale - Week 2

This week I needed to deiced if I wanted to try out flax weaving. I have actually tried his before in the island we make these to keep our food fresh. I have also seen people make bags out of them. I would like to learn more skills. Something hard I found doing this is folding because it always went different angels.

  1. Hello Angela,
    I like how your island weaved baskets to put in fresh food. Now thats a smart idea. Weaving would be better to use because you can weave lots of stuff just for no cost. You are having a great start to the SLJ. Keep it up!.

  2. Hello Angela,

    What an amazing blog post. I really enjoyed reading your description about trying flaxing out. "WOW" it's great to hear that you've tried flaxing out before. I've just tried it using paper, but not leaves.

    Keep it Up!

  3. Kia ora Angela,

    That is so awesome that you have tried this before on your island, I like that idea of keeping food in the flax baskets because it keeps food fresh. You are really saving the environment by not using plastic bags!

    I have only done flax weaving once, a long time ago. I would love to give it another try and see if I could make a basket so I could put some of my groceries in! This means I will limit my plastic use too which is one of my new year's resolutions. Do you have any ‘New Year's resolutions’? New Year's resolutions are goals for the year!

    It would be really cool to make some goals up for yourself :) Let me know if you make any and post in the comments.

    Blog you later!
