Any Weaving Level

The Candy Basket has become a series!  I call them Candy Baskets because it was first designed for candy, which I always have in the house and shop.  Really it is a great catch all basket.  It even works for smaller napkins.  The uses are endless!

The Thanksgiving Candy Basket starts with weaving a filled, woven base.  Techniques include twining, start/stop weaving, triple twining (3-rod wale) and the use of overlays.  The colors are perfect for the season: rust, smoked, black and wine.  A cute wood button that says “Happy Turkey Day” and raffia complete this charmer.  Sure to be one you will reach for during the holiday season.
