Hi i also thought when got my new allotment that willow would make a good fence to keep gardens apart and a gardening mate gave me some cuttings from a job he was on. Just planted the cuttings in the ground 18inch apart and after two years have now began to dig them out.
As others have mentioned it takes time and effort to keep in check cut back and it grows with alarming speed so need the time for the actual garden. Also have found that the rooting systems for this invasive tree grow also quickly and have grow into my beds with the veg
Not into weaving however you may have to be careful you plant the actual willow you can use happy gardeningComment
