basketwork

/ˈbæskətwɜɹk/ noun

Material woven in the style of a basket.

Word Origin Basketwork is simply work made of baskets or wicker. Basket comes from Late Latin bascauda 'woven container,' possibly from Celtic. Work is from Old English weorc, from PIE *werg- 'to do, make.' So basketwork is the craft of weaving baskets. The same root for work gives us wrought, worker, and network.
