From The Art of Zib:

After making a set of felted baskets for myself out of some handspun, my daughter immediately tried to claim them for herself. She “needed” some pretty boxes for her “Very Special Things”. Now she has her own set and you can too! The boxes make for a quick way to use up those feltable odds and ends. A step-by-step photo walk-thru is included for the optional internal structure and easy handsewn lining.

SKILL LEVEL:

Advanced Beginner: Involves knitting in the round using double pointed needles and optional sewing of the lining.
