Basket Weave Lead Craft Kit

A beginner-friendly kit for making a colourful basket-weave dog lead, about 1.2 m long including the handle. Scan the QR code on the pack for a step-by-step video. You use the kumihimo braiding disk in the kit to weave a round braid along the lead and a flatter braid for the handle.

Best suited to small and medium dogs, up to 30 kg. Not recommended for strong pullers, as the finished lead may stretch. Recommended age 10 and over. You will also need scissors, a needle and thread, a tape measure, and a paper clip or bobby pin.

In the kit

• Four colours of recycled cotton cord, with a polyester core
• A heavy-duty 20 mm snap hook, in gold, silver or rose gold
• A logo tag
• A kumihimo braiding disk

The finished lead is hand-wash only. Check it regularly and replace it at the first sign of wear. Take the lead off before crating your dog or leaving them unattended, and keep small parts away from young children.
