For beginners, mastering several basic weaving techniques is the key to making storage baskets. Here are two commonly used weaving methods:

Mesh weaving method: suitable for storage baskets that want to create a breathable feel. By cross weaving, a mesh structure is formed, which is both beautiful and practical.

3、 Weaving steps

Fixed starting line: Secure the rope or cotton thread to the edge of the base to ensure stability and prevent slipping.

Weaving the bottom: According to the selected weaving method, gradually weave the bottom, paying attention to maintaining the uniformity and tightness of the lines.

Weaving the side: After the bottom is completed, continue weaving the side upwards and adjust the weaving density and height as needed.

Reinforced edges: Use needle and thread to reinforce the woven edges, increasing the durability of the storage basket.

Add decoration (optional): Add decorations to the storage basket according to personal preferences to make it more unique.
