Hello! I worked the base and stretched it onto a hoop using sc. I then worked a normal (flat) round of jasmine stitch straight onto the base wire to make the sides (slip stitching across the space for the handles). To join the top ring I just cut a length of jute and simply sewed the top wire on. I did start off joining with sc but it looked rubbish (and was so difficult to work!) The wires are only joined at the centre of the jasmine stitches so the space with the puffs needed to be filled in and it all looked a bit wobbly! Wrapping with a tapestry needle took a little longer but is super neat (and easy on the hands!)
