Procedure - Shape The Point |

Once there is enough space between spokes to do so, separate the paired spokes and
twine over each one separately. |
|
Procedure - Shape The Point |

The basket will begin to flare out. As
additional rows of twining are completed, the space between each spoke will increase. You
can widen the shape of the cone by urging the spokes outward as you weave. You should
think about whether you want your cornucopia to be long and narrow or flare out more
rapidly giving it a more pudgy appearance. |
|
Procedure - Add Secondary Spokes |

When the spokes become spaced again add one
secondary spoke to one side of each original spoke. Use a scissors to make a slanted cut
at one end of the spoke and slide it down into the weaving right along side of the
original spoke. |
|
Procedure - Weave The Body |

Twine around each of the spokes
individually. Be careful to keep the spokes well spaced. Continue twining the body of the
cornucopia until the shape is as long and as full as you would like it to be. |
