My coastal commute takes roughly 8 hours, 3 ferries, 1 chowdah, and $41 in cash door-to-door. See the full list of salty, local spots that inspire what we do and what we make to carry over on Baskets for Breakfast (link in bio).

Fall is my favorite time to travel from Montauk to Maine. With our October Barn Workshop approaching and the launch of our New England Woven Collection, I’m sharing some salty local recommendations from the beach to Fogg Barn… and dispelling the myth that baskets are reserved for summer days.

The menu is out tomorrow am on Baskets for Breakfast 🍳

One part spiritual, two parts gangster.

This past weekend we hosted a weaving workshop The Church with Marfa Stance as part of Marfa Stance and Friends. We had the best time making baskets with everyone!

We join more friends this Wednesday with a small collection of finished handmade carriers at Marfa Stance’s annual private Sag Harbor shopping event. RSVP for the details, we are only there on Wednesday 3-6 and baskets are first come!

We think our little Montauk fishing shack was built long before the town paperwork from 1947. Recently, my husband made my weave dreams come true by constructing an extension of the Shaker peg trim to the ceiling for our baskets.

Pieces we use daily—for garden harvests, beach runs, or storing fruits and vegetables on the counter. It’s a work in progress, but I think it’s so fun.

The UWW substack newsletter Baskets for Breakfast offers the full story. You can subscribe with compliments via the link in bio or just drop in to read.

The newest edition to our Folk Fleur Collection is The Orchard Basket. 🐦‍⬛ One of the only shapes we weave with a form, the 12 x 12 sphere is perfectly positioned for plucking fruit, harvesting garden treasures or displaying the spillage of a successful berry forage. We are in love. 🖤

Owning the absurdity of the idiom Underwater Basket Weaving has always been a conscious rebellion against the idea that handwork is frivolous (in education and otherwise). Indeed, it is quite the opposite; for me, it feels quite essential. Our name also implies that we are teachers at the core, and while we have expanded beyond that, I believe in the transference of knowledge

As the community of people interested in basketry grows, I know it’s an odd feeling for longtime weavers who feel their secret language will enter the mainstream. The beauty of going with the flow will be that the basket embodies energy that we can use to cultivate kindness in our culture. It can still be a sacred private practice.

Here are some of the books I am drawing on to ground the studio lately. The link to the wider list is in our bio via Substack- our letters are delivered with compliments
