BasketNbz904

Cylindrical basket woven with double strand twining in spruce root. The walls of the basket are separated into seven horizontal design fields of equal thickness by eight rows of triple strand twining. Diagonal lines and criss-crossing shapes are introduced into some of the design fields by weaving over two warps instead of one at regular intervals around the basket. In each successive row, the stitches are moved over by one warp so that the overall effect created is a diagonal line.
