Having mixed up a wad of dark brown, I laid it over the whole of the background carefully painting around the baskets. This was extremely helpful as apart from covering the glaring white of the primed canvas, it also helped me to ascertain the values of each basket and to decide if they needed any further work. I think I'll wait until I have finished the basket lids until going back to the baskets. And after making a start on the lids, I am finally a lot closer to bringing this painting to a close.
