Not illustrated. 1902 Excerpt: ... Fig. 389, and trim the ends slantingly, as shown in the same diagram. Bend the end of one rib down, and push it into the basket on the farthest side of the next rib (Fig. 389). Do this with the second rib, and so continue around until the edge is "bound off." When the ends of the ribs do not slide in easily, pry open the space with a pair of closed scissors, turning them slightly. All the baskets shown in The Photographed Group are woven in exactly this manner from start to finish; the shaping is done by bending the ribs this way or that, and by tightening the weave when narrowing and loosening it when widening.

To do this, cut a number of the ribs onehalf the length of the ones you have started with, and after trimming the ends as in Fig. 389, insert one at the right of each of the original ribs, as shown in Fig. 390, pushing each well down toward the centre. This will give you an even number once more, so a third rib must be added to one of the groups, and should be inserted at the left, the original rib being between the two new ones (Fig. 390). Separate these ribs as you weave until all are of an equal distance apart, and continue the shaping of the basket.
