INSTRUCTIONS

A note on stock selection A clear, knot-free hardwood such as basswood, aspen or walnut is the best material for this project. It is helpful to familiarize yourself with each pattern and where each piece goes before making any cuts. Mixing light

and dark colored woods will also add interest to the designs. With these patterns and a little imagination, you'll have no trouble making scroll sawn baskets that are unique reflections of your own creativity.

Cut the components

Transfer the patterns (found in Full Size Pattern Section No. 2) to the appropriate stock and cut the pieces to shape.
