Round baskets, page 2
Basket with lead From under the basket
This is a basket with lead incorporatd in it. The stakes are usually set up, and then a double three-whale is weaved up the base. I tried to do it as in the book by Hilary Burns, but I completely failed. Anyway, it is strong enough though, I used chaines to hang it up.
 
This basket I made on 29 March 2003 in Eynderhoof, Nederweert, Holland.
Did I think I could make good handles!

NOT!. I was busy with my handles:

"What are you doing??"
"Making my hanles"
"Well, well"

When you make your handles, you do it by rules, you don't do just something. So I'll think I'll have make lots of baskets with handles, will I make good hanldes, and I am busy with that right now.
(see for this maintenance and restoration, too)
