A wire frame is the founda-tion of it; the other materials are cerise, white ditto,white wool, cerise cord, white gimp, and a small pieceof white satin or watered silk, and cerise We will describe the form of the frame, that our friendsmay have it made. A round, about four inches and ahalf in diameter is formed very substantially of wire;this forms the base. Another round is made eight inchesand a half in diameter. These are covered by wires,which are repeated eight times in the round. First,two wires, three-quarters of an inch apart, are placed toconnect the two rounds. It will be well to put all thesesixteen wires on first, at the quarters and half-quartersof the circle. In each of the spaces between two otherwires connect the rounds; but instead of being putstraight up, they are bent into a zigzag form, increasingin size so as to fill up the space between the wires.

A piece of stout cardboard forms the bottom of thebasket, and fits in the small round. The covering
