Just modelled this basket today for my apples scene. I was fearing a 
complicated modelling task, involving sphere_sweeps and obscure trig, but 
suddenly I figured how to fake it only with tori (well, and some 
cylinders... ;). There are about 1300 torus sections, placed with loops. 
The basket wall was easy, but the top and bottom parts come out by pure 
trial&error, I must confess...
