This is a little basket made from a calendar cut up into strips. I received it in my Basket guild's gift exchange Wed. night. It is very intricate with double weave diagonal plaiting, and casts a wonderful shadow!
It was a random exchange, with everyone drawing numbers, so it was a bit of a coincidence that the artist who made this basket also received the gift that I had made! Oddly enough, it was also a diagonally plaited paper basket, although not nearly as complex as this one. What fun!
