Change over to three rod waling and make three rows of waling to finish the top of the miniature fruit basket.

For three rod waling you start with three sets of threads, one in between each of three successive wire stakes, and cross in front of two stakes, then behind the third stake to the right and out to the outside of the basket, repeating this with each of the three sets of threads.
