This is a perfect answer for those who love houndstooth pattern and need a good storage or carry-all basket -- quite sturdy and also flexible! I loaded it into the car trunk with several things packed into it -- and as other things were placed in the trunk, this basket allowed tight packing.  When taken out, after being mashed and shoved into the back corner, it came back to its original shape. My partner really likes it and wants to get another.
