Basket is Knit and then felted.

Knitting is from the bottom center to the ruffle. Handle is 10 stitch I-cord.

After felting my basket is rather floppy. To encourage a basket shape, I used an 8” cake pan in the bottom and used a coat hanger through the handle. This should now survive as a spring decoration.
