previous Wicker next   Wicker baskets      Basket making   Baskets with round bottom (traditional starting with 7 or 8 stems in cross) The stems are made of fine cane and braiding with dyed kitchen string.                       Baskets with stems made of wire covered with paper (more flexible).                           Flat-bottomed baskets                           Crocheted basket : a very easy method for fast replacement, crocheted in single crochet with kitchen string dyed with coffee. That can be appropriate the bottom of a roombox..               Rectangular basket                 This one is a first attempt, it is a little too coarse, the string is too large and the stems are a little too thick ... With the same method, a plant pot and a vat.       And a large trunk             A suitcase with braided bottom                    Plates from dyed cotton                                   Armchairs A little more difficult.                     My third attempt: with finer string and colour and stems in paper covered wire, for a more bent form.                               4th attempt, with less defaults... for the cat's lounge               New wicker chairs and furniture                   previous top next
