Pineapple Hospitality Basket


 

I  have seen photos of a basket designed to look like a pineapple and decided to try to weave the basket without having a pattern to follow.   Do you ever do this?  I like the challenge of solving basket design problems. 
 
This is my first attempt making a pineapple basket.  The basket can hold a bottle inside.  
 
The first time I make a new basket I have to workout the weaving techniques, materials, and sizes needed to duplicate the design.  Once I make a few more I'll feel more confident  and refine my results.

  2. I have woven over 300 of these pineapple baskets. Started making them in the late 90's.
