[Nfb-krafters-korner] Coiled baskets

Hi Sharon, I am wondering if you could use an old garden hose for the base 
of a crocheted potted plant holder or would the hose not be flexible enough 
to coil around.

Yes, i made at least one basket with some kind of soft, thick cord that I 
didn’t know what  it was made from.  The fabric I used were in strips.  It’s 
fairly easy to learn once you get the hang of anchoring it about every four 
wrap-arounds.  I also have access to old oxygen tubes.  Maybe that’s a good 
medium to use.
