Flettet hjerte (6x6) i hjerte
Det var populært å lage julekurver allerede på 1800-tallet. Hele familien kunne samles til denne koselige førjulsaktiviteten, som de gjerne forberedte hele året! Det var nemlig ikke alle som hadde råd til glanspapir, så det var slett ikke uvanlig at man tok vare på fint papir fra pakker og lignende og la det i press helt til jula nærmet seg og de kunne flette julekurver av det.

Basket Template
The template is the foundation for the heart basket and ensures that the strips fit together correctly, which is essential for achieving a smooth result, especially with more advanced baskets. A typical template size is approximately 8 x 12 cm, but you can adjust the size as needed. There are several methods to transfer the template to the basket. You can follow our step-by-step guide for the best results using parchment paper.
How to Make the Basket
It doesn't take much to get started with making a basket. Here is a short list of steps on how you can make your own basket. If you haven't woven much before or need a refresher, you can follow a more detailed recipe on Basket Making Page our page.
Download and print the template above. A common template size is about 8 x 12 cm, but you can adjust the size as needed.
Choose two different colors of paper (glossy paper is recommended). Draw the template onto the paper and fold the paper in half. The bottom of the template should be along the closed side of the paper. Cut out the basket.
Weave the hearts by alternating the strips inside and outside of each other.
Cut out a handle and glue it inside the hearts.
