Handwoven Baskets


I love these baskets! They are so beautiful and so well made. Some of the best made baskets I've ever come across for toting around projects or stashing yarn and wool. A new shipment arrived yesterday, so the store is now stocked for the holidays.

    Are these baskets woven locally? They looks handy.

  2. These baskets are from Ghana. The women weave them during the dry season to supplement their incomes. I get these through a fair trade organization. There are several companies like this or similar that I do business with- Under the Nile, Lantern Moon, Peace Fleece....
