Lynn’s primary interest in basket making is the rib style basket. She has been making baskets since the early 1980s and teaching and selling them as well since that time. She is a member of the National Basketry Organization, Northeast Basketmakers Guild and a juried member of the League of NH Craftsmen. Her work has been exhibited by the NBG and the Handweavers Guild of America and is sold by shops in NH and CT. Lynn’s baskets incorporate several different materials such as sea grass, cane, jute fiber and both flat and round reed. Sometimes she uses colored reed mixed with natural ones. She likes to use grapevine, honeysuckle and mountain laurel for the handles, using the natural bends.
