How to make a basket with Rushes.
To make a basket with rushes you get about twelve lengths and put them in a line, then you get twelve more and weave them in. When you are finished get twenty-four rushes and put them round the bottom of the basket then you get twenty-four more and weave them in.
Then you plot the handle with three rushes and stick it on the sides.
