Takeaways

• 😀 Prepare 168 rattan sticks (lidi), divided into 7 groups of 24 sticks each.
• 😀 Begin the weaving process by criss-crossing the first 6 sticks in a specific pattern.
• 😀 Use a ‘322’ weaving formula (3 sticks in, 2 out) for the base structure.
• 😀 Reinforce the weave with plastic or raffia string to maintain tension and shape.
• 😀 Ensure that the sticks are placed evenly, adjusting the weave to prevent overlap.
• 😀 Shape the basket into an oval form by gently pressing and adjusting the spacing of the sticks.
• 😀 The basket handle is made by sharpening the ends of 4 sticks and inserting them into the woven body.
• 😀 Temporarily secure the handle with string while continuing the binding process to finalize it.
• 😀 Trim the excess ends of the sticks carefully to avoid loose pieces and ensure a clean finish.
• 😀 The finished product is a sturdy, oval-shaped woven fruit basket with a functional handle.
• 😀 Patience and attention to detail are essential for achieving a neat and durable basket.

Q & A

What materials are required to make the fruit basket?

You will need 168 sticks (lidi), divided into 7 groups of 24. Additionally, you will need raffia or plastic string for securing the weave and scissors for trimming the sticks.

How are the sticks arranged at the beginning of the project?

Start by arranging the sticks in a crisscross pattern. The sticks are grouped into 7 clusters of 24, and the first set of sticks is placed in a crisscross pattern to form the base of the basket.

What is the importance of the '6-6' and '3-2-2' weaving patterns?

The '6-6' pattern involves using six sticks for both the starting and ending parts of the weave, ensuring an even distribution. The '3-2-2' pattern helps continue the weaving and is used to secure the sides of the basket by alternating between three and two sticks in each group.

How do you ensure the weaving stays tight and even?

To maintain evenness and tightness, the sticks are carefully woven and adjusted as you go. The sides are gradually shaped, and care is taken to avoid overlapping or misalignment. After completing each section, the sticks are pulled and adjusted to keep the weave tight.

What should you do if the weave becomes loose or uneven during the process?

If the weave becomes loose or uneven, gently pull the sticks to tighten them. Make sure to shift them around as needed to ensure they fit properly into place and maintain an even pattern throughout the basket.

How do you shape the basket into an oval after the weaving is complete?

Once the weaving of the sides is finished, gently press the basket into an oval shape. This step is crucial for creating the desired form, and you should ensure the weave is shaped evenly as you press it.

What steps are involved in adding the handle to the basket?

To add the handle, four sticks are sharpened and carefully inserted into the weave according to the pattern. The sticks are woven through the basket, creating a sturdy handle, and then secured with raffia or plastic string to ensure they don’t come loose.

Why is it important to leave some extra length on the ends of the sticks during the weaving process?

Leaving extra length on the ends of the sticks provides enough material to secure and finalize the weaving. It ensures that the weave doesn’t unravel and gives room to make adjustments and refine the shape before trimming the ends.

What is the role of the raffia or plastic string in the basket-making process?

Raffia or plastic string is used to temporarily hold sections of the basket in place while the weaving continues. It is especially helpful in securing the handle and locking the final parts of the weave to ensure the basket remains intact.

What is the final step before completing the fruit basket?

The final step involves trimming any excess sticks, ensuring the ends are cleanly cut and secure. The handle is also checked for stability, and any remaining rough edges are smoothed out before the basket is complete.
