Etymology
The word "creel" comes from the Middle English word "creil," which in turn originates from the Old English word "crēla," meaning "basket."
Meaning
A creel is a type of basket or container, typically made of wicker, that is used for carrying fish or other items. It has a wide mouth and a narrow bottom, and often has a handle or strap for carrying.
Origin
The creel has been used for centuries for fishing and other purposes. It is believed to have originated in the British Isles, where it was used by fishermen to carry their catch. The creel's design allows for easy ventilation, which helps to keep the fish fresh.
Over time, the creel has been adopted for a variety of other uses, such as carrying vegetables, tools, and other items. It is still commonly used by fishermen today, but can also be found in gardens, homes, and other settings.
