This little basket gets its woven-look texture from a unique tucking technique, which makes the basket sturdy enough to stand up on its own.

For this project, I used 1 skein of Red Heart Super Saver in Grey Heather with my Addi Express Kingsize Knitting Machine.

The same technique can also be done on the Addi Express Professional Knitting Machine for a small basket.
