A very handy basket, a good size for a centerpiece, or perfect to add a few items for a gift. It would be a good fit for an ongoing knitting project to sit next to your chair. Really, a nice basket for anything. The bottom is a closed weave and is 4 1/2 by 9 1/2 inches. It opens at the top to 5 1/2 to 10 1/2. The basket is 5 1/2 inches tall, the solid handle adds another 4 inches. The ceramic loon is 2 1/4 by 4 1/2.
Pat Huckins is based in Greenville, on Prong Pond, and has been weaving baskets for many years. She learned to weave at a class in Hallowell and has enjoyed it ever since. She has taught many classes in the past and her favorite student and fellow weaver is her nephew Levi. Levi is a bright young man with Autism, though he does not let Autism define him. He loves to travel, surf, down hill ski, swim, and compete in Special Olympics. Levi and his Aunt Pat have started a new venture selling their baskets on Moosehead Marketplace. They hope you enjoy the baskets as much as they enjoy making them.
