Baskets

 I've been making little baskets for trinkets. Its become a craze with me right now since I gave a little basket to my son's teacher. Suddenly, I got bitten big time by the basket bug.



             This basket is made of Raffia and organza ribbon....the picture does no justice to it!! I loved it ...will make many more , I know.

        Here are more baskets with spring theme. They are made with multi coloured rayon yarn I got from India. Ofcourse, there was no label so I dont know what it's called. I got a few cones of these last year and they are great for making baskets and bowls.









There a few more thread baskets but those are yet to be starched along with this week's snowflake!!! I'll get to that soon ....I hope.

  6. Thanx Raquel and Mimi! Those rayon yarns are really nice for baskets...work up fast and look nice too.
    Mimi, I too like the Raffia one the most. I just doesnt look half as good in the picture. I'm definately going to make more of those.
