This was very affordable and easy to work with. This was my first time trying to weave anything and Iām glad this is what I started with. Now I have a million other ideas to use with this! Got it 3 days before it was to be delivered š

It was a little thinner than called for but it worked out great. We got way more than we needed for a great price.

Exactly what I wanted, very flexible and when I soaked it in water, I was able to make Brigid's crosses easily. I can't wait to make baskets!!!

Perfect! We are making our own baskets this year for Easter since we can't go see family and it's perfect. I didn't a small practice one and came out beautifully

Absolutely the WORST quality reed I have ever used. Turns very dark when soaked for over 1 minute, and becomes mushy in seconds, yet so brittle when dry it is nearly impossible to separate the strands without breaking them. Also, when I purchase #3 reed, I do not want 2.5 - 3. The size of the strands is very variable, not easy to find even 2 strands that are the same. I will never purchase from here again, would rather pay a bit more, and get the quality and size I need. Waste of money.

Exactly what I'd hoped for. I'm not really a basket maker. But, I purchased the reed to make a woven piece to use as a window prop for a jewelry store I do window displays for. This worked out perfectly. 95% of the reeds were pliable enough that they did not break with handling. If I'd been more careful, I probably wouldn't have broken any.

Top quality, the best reed on the market in my opinion. This is the blue ribbon PLB reed which is well know to basketmakers. I prefer this reed because it is evenly milled and smooth. Both the round and the flat reeds by Commonwealth have been perfect to work with. Prompt shipping in 2 days makes it worth the price for me, since shipping costs with other sellers usually runs more than the reed. I will continue to order from Amazon for my basketry reed.
