The upper rim of the basket is captured by a round double ash spline lashed with 1/4" ash splints capturing the vertical ash splines that go from rim to rim, along with the carved clothes pin hinge. The splines are woven with 1/4" ash to the mid point of the basket where a 1" spline defines a halfway point. The 1/4" splines continue to the bottom which is defined by another 1" spline.
