Have been jumping around while reading Maryjane's book. on page 401 it shows a nevr-stoop wash basket. Has anyone seen one of these? are they still available? Or anyone have a pattern to make one? Looks like something I'd like to have. Thanks for any info... KarenP
Karen, I've not seen this type of never stoop method (except in MJ's book), but I do have a laundry bag made of muslin that hangs between two wooden side legs.... I think I'll rework it and see about making it into this variety. If I'm successful I'll let ya know!

Check on eBay. I bought a one (not vintage) for about $14 plus shipping. I redid the fabric and right now it holds my knitting stuff. But as soon as I get a clothesline it will be used for laundry! Also check garage sales or even the Goodwill.
Gosh darn, I just saw a wash basket which has legs that drop down when you pick it up...now if I could just remember where I saw it...probably some catalog. Get back to you all on this.
