My new basket in progress....

This is a new Burden Basket in progress, and it is a ways from being completed. So far it is 5" from point to rim. It will most likely be 4 times this size when done. The pattern is called "Spinning Stars". They are all inside eachother, and progress in size as they go. It is being constructed with Basket Reed (the core of rattan), and Raffia (a palm leaf).  This piece will have a number, and will be for sale when complete. If you are interested in this piece, please comment in this blog, or email me at darleneryer23@yahoo.com .
