Woodland Craft
Accompany woodsman Ben Law as he celebrates the amazing diversity of craft products made from materials sourced directly from the woods.
From brooms, rakes, and spoons to chairs, fencing, and yurts, the items are hewn from freshly cut green wood, shaped by hand and infused with a simple, rustic beauty.
There are detailed instructions and advice for each craft, along with essential knowledge about tools and devices plus fascinating information on the history, language and traditions of the crafts, coppice management and tree species.
- Includes crafts for the farm, garden, wood fuel, building and domestic use.
- Handy directory of tree species to use for identification and an overview of their characteristics and uses.
- Directory of tools and devices, old and new. • Caters for all levels of ability: from simple woven panels to making a yurt. Limited number of signed copies.
- The book is very relevant to the current resurgence of interest in all aspects of woodland life.
- Will appeal to people with an interest in traditional crafts, woodland management, sustainability, permaculture and the countryside.
- Includes charming line drawings and woodblock-style illustrations.
- Foreword by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall
