The Triad Nesting Baskets are worked flat and then assembled into their final basket shape. You will begin by working in the round to create the square base. From there, each side is worked directly onto the base, one at a time. Once all sides are complete, they are positioned and secured with a final round worked around the top edge, creating the finished basket form.
