This project was inspired by the Marled Basket, which uses Caron Big Cakes. Instead of creating a rotational stepping look, I was inspired by the bead stitch and clusters to create the look. The basket is 11" x 5.5" tall.

I blocked my basket and sprayed it with starch for the finishing touches. It's now great as a coffee table accessory or storage container made by you.
