Soft baskets

Hello there!
My 3D class made the  sweetest soft baskets in class.

                         Inside the basket...

                               Close up view of the bottom

You start with rope from say, Home Depot. I dug out some misc. yarn to tie up the layers of rope.
You start with the edge of the rope and wind it tightly. Anchor it with some yarn tied in a square knot. 

I found it easiest to have my
 student work in pairs.
 One to wind and form
 the bowl and the other student to tie on yarn as needed.

They did such a lovely job

Don't you think?
