*sigh*
.
This has actually turned into a mini obsession of sorts.
.
Determining which yarns/threads match well together based on texture and color, what size to make the basket(s), etc... :)

This is turning out to be an ongoing basket project. :)
.
So far, in addition to the two I made for my kitchen counters, I've made 4 more using variations of this same pattern.
.
Each one is double-stranded with a variegated yarn I got from a friend. It's on a big cone and I don't know the fiber content or the origin of the yarn.
.
The colors are autumn-y and I've mixed it with a few different types of yarn.
.
One basket is double-stranded with cotton sage green thread.
.
One is double stranded with a heathered blue of unknown content/origin that I got from a friend's sister.
.
Two are mixed with natural-colored cotton string I got from the dollar store.
.
Each basket has it's own unique look and texture.
.
This unintended project is turning out to be very therapeutic.
