Make a basket out of equisetum

I started this one over a year ago. Went out and picked the finest equisetum stalks from the perimeter of an old cranberry bog on the property. Used hawthorn branches for the ribs and handle. It’s been hanging on a wrought iron hook in a rafter beam in the kitchen for long enough that the equisetum isn’t green any more. It isn’t to the point that all the ribs are even in place. I have to tell people what it is when they ask. “Why, it’s a basket!?” I say. “oh?!” they reply, “I see that now.It’s lovely.” I’m going to start telling people it was there when we moved in.I’m sure that when I finish, it will be lovely. I’ll post a picture when it is so.
