This miniature fruit basket made from linen thread and wire, uses classic wicker weaving techniques. If you want, you can practise on a miniature, then use your skills to create a full size basket from wicker cane, instead of thread and wire. The skills learned making this basket can be applied to all kinds of miniature weaving projects in several scales. You can use the finished project in several scale doll's house scenes.
