|
| Here are a couple of variations that can be achieved from the basic kit. |
|
Pink handle basket The large oval basket was created by painting the base pink and using pink crochet cotton, one wire from either side was bent across and yarn-wrapped to create the handle. |
Shaped handle basket This fancy shaped basket was created with a small round base. After approximately 10 rows the wires were splayed outwards and weaving continued creating the "flared" effect. |
Waste paper basket The waste paper basket was created using small round base with gaps left for a less solid effect. |
Dog basket The dog basket was created by weaving the yarn back on itself after about 6 plain rows creating an ever-increasing gap. |
