Mini baskets, crochet, cotton, spring and handmade...
I made five baskets in 2
different colours, one basket is a breeze to make, it takes about 15-20 minutes to
make, more or less depending on your speed and skill level. You could
whip up a few baskets and they will make great gifts to surprise
the little ones.
Gather:
1 x 8 ply cotton yarn ball in your choice of colour/s
4mm crochet hook
Scissors
Yarn needle
Satin ribbon
Abbreviations:
ch = chain
sl st = slip stitch
dc = double crochet
hdc = half double crochet
sts – stitches
This is a small project also suitable for those with basic crochet skills.
You will be working in joined rounds. Begin each round with a ch 2 (not counted as a stitch) and ending each round with a sl st to top of ch 2.
Rnd 1: Make a magic ring. Ch 2 then work 12 dc’s in the magic ring. Join with a sl st to top of ch 2. (12 sts)
Rnd 2: Ch 2. Work 2 dc’s in each stitch around. Join with a sl st to top of ch 2. (24 sts)
Rnds 3 – 5: Ch 2. 1 dc in each stitch around. Join with a sl st to top of ch 2. (24 sts). Do not fasten off just yet.
At the end of Rnd 5, ch 25. Skip 1st ch from hook and work 1 hdc in next 24 ch sts. Sl st to 1st dc from Rnd 5. Fasten off and hide tail. Stitch other end of handle directly across the opposite end of the basket.
