stash basket

I've been loving the ever-inspirational Hillary's basket bags as well as those that I've seen in Japanese craft books (well, not the actual books, but the photos of books on ebay).

Here's my attempt at a basket bag which I made to store my yarn stash/projects. Didn't turn out exactly as planned, but I learned a few things along the way and would be willing to take another stab at it (and, yes, there was some stabbing of fingers).

I may even end my knitting sabbatical now that I have such handy storage!
