crochet basket and shawl

I've finished a few projects, FO.. in crochet, not in knitting.  I'm knitting dishcloths here and there, but the crochet items were on my list .

A crocheted basket 'in the round'... my hand kills after doing this each time, but I keep making them once in a while.  I had found this raffia rope in my stash and used all of it to make this seven inch wide basket.

and the colorshift shawl I've been working on for a few months.. these two balls of yarn came from a vendor at the flea market and I've been looking to try this colorshifting yarn out..
