Easy Crochet Basket

l love the fact that this gift basket is able to be reused and not thrown away like so many other gift bags that we buy.

The Yarn That’s Perfect For This Basket

I used my favorite yarn Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice and held two skeins together at the same time to give it sturdier feel!

It is a medium weight yarn but works up very sturdy when held together two skeins at a time for this basket.

If you don’t want to add handles to your gift basket then you are done! Just cut off yarn and weave in your loose ends with the yarn needle.

Handles: (OPTIONAL)

With two strands of yarn join yarn on top of basket (you can pick the position as long as its even) and chain 4 onto basket.

Row 1: Chain 2, Turn, DC in the next 4 ST.

Row 2-15: Repeat Row 1

Join onto other end of basket with (4) Sl ST to form the handle and fasten off securely. To finish weave in loose ends with a yarn needle.

Finished Size is Approximately a 22 Inch Circumference and 7 Inch Length without the handles.
