Interesting point - do we see the leg like that because the scribe was determined to show that this was a woven basket and you could see through the weave? Or is he trying to show that the leg is inside the basket?

Because most baskets are far more tightly woven that that. You wouldn't see a wide spaced weave like that on an animal basket, the food would fall through. The spacing between the weave, in fact, wouldn't belong to a woven basket but more of a container made out of branches.
In fact, I would say that a woven basket with that wide a weave would have no stability or function at all!
I would say that the position of the leg is the most important clue as to the function of the basket, but I haven't a clue what it could be at the moment.
