The "Double Vision Basket" is 

a specific basket weaving pattern featuring space-dyed reed for spokes and a double-braided "God's eye" center, according to Gina's Baskets.  This creative pattern provides a distinct visual effect, often designed  by combining colored reed in a structured way to form the base, as  described in the pattern instructions from Gina's Baskets.

 Create  this basket by Mary Price called "Shadow Box"

We will learn to create a triple boxed woven base using natural and dyed reed. The sides and rims are wove using traditional methods.  

 Create  this stunning decorative wall basket while learning a coiling  basket-making technique. The result looks fantastic, and the process is  relatively simple. Plus, with easily accessible materials, it’s simple  to expand on these techniques and make more baskets of varying sizes.  Finished basket measures 12″.
