I ordered one of these for my daughter who needs a lot of sensory input. She absolutely loves it. Lots of texture and "fiddly" bits . I will be purchasing another one soon for an elderly relation with Alzheimer's.

Sailí Mo “The Willow Witch”
Creating something with my own hands, with natural materials is what I love. Weaving baskets with willow that I have grown myself, cared for and turned into a pliable material is a magical process, hence the name Willow Witch. My baskets are handmade with care, strong and durable and at the end of their long life they are fully degradable.
Knitting is something I seem to have done all my life. I like to make a variety of articles, small enough to be made in a few days, or in between the basketry. Multi-colour yarns are my favourite, seeing the colour change as you create is also……. a little bit of magic……
I make my craft in North Co. Galway. For more about me, my baskets and other crafts visit my website: thewillowwitch.wordpress.com
