this morning i finished a second bowl using materials from our dismantled electric blanket
it is crocheted from thin strips of the blanket material for the base and most of the sides
then i’ve added torn silk, including vintage silk linings, and satin ribbon
again, i let the ends hang out …
torn strips of silk are also piled into the basket
[7 inches diameter – top; 10.5 inches diameter – across widest point]
now to cut more strips for part 3 of this project …

Beautiful work from a discarded object.

Thank you! Yes, the bridal look is no accident … just think about the theme, which is ‘connected’ … =D
