Thanks so much for this. I was taught how to make these at school in India in the 60s and have been trying for a year to remember how to do them as I have a large amount of electrical earth sleeve looking for a project! Struggled to remember and no-one else even knew what I meant. Great.

Hey -
I remember these. I’ve made two of them myself (one as a big school bag to carry my books & a matching one for my lunch box and water bottle !!). I used orange and black combo. I used “disco wires” the ones that had a contrast color (in this case a white line) on top. If I remember correctly, you work the base first, with the running wire, and both at the beginning and end piece (knit / knot), you leave the same length of wire as the rest of the ones you cut for the pattern. And then you start working from bottom up, going around.
1. Incidentally, I saw someone selling these baskets on roadside in Bangalore – in Gandhi bazaar (Oct 2009)
2. I brought 2 bundles of wires (maroon and white), the last 2 pieces left, which were kind of old and dirty, but didnt have a choice. If someone knows where in India I can get it (Bangalore, Madras) I’ld appreicate it.
