About this Mod
Just in case you need baskets in your Minecraft world.

Note: Basket Case requires you to also install Primal Lib.
Basket Case is a small mod that adds wicker baskets. Baskets can be used decoratively, but they are also a handy form of portable storage. Baskets can be carried around in your hot bar, and their inventory can be accessed from your hot bar with a simple right click. This convenience comes with a few minor tradeoffs: they take a few extra steps to make, and they don't hold as much as a chest.
Baskets come in three sizes: small, medium, and large. The following screenshots show the basket inventories for Basket Case 2.0 with some items and blocks from Basket Case and Primal Lib.



Baskets are made from wicker, which can be made from vanilla items like vines or sugar cane (aka reeds), or new items—cordage from tall grass, and bark strips from logs. Along with bark strips, there are also stripped logs (when Basket Case is updated to 1.13, it will use vanilla stripped logs).
Basket Case is highly configurable. Almost all of its features can be disabled or tweaked.
For more details, please see the Basket Case home page.
Basket Case 2.0 requires you to also install Primal Lib.
Check out the alpha version of my latest mod, Darkest Before Dawn! It adds realistic torches, campfires, and dark nights.
