Handy Basket Tutorial with Video

I have seen many versions of crocheted baskets out there, so I thought I would make a version of my own. I was aiming for a square basket, this version has a square base. I was aiming for a cubical basket you could put in cubicles. I have already made a couple of these baskets and these truly do come in handy when it comes to storing yarn and yarn-related projects and materials. Now I just need some cubical shelves to put them in. The materials I used are Worsted weight yarn, size 4. Hold two strands together I used about 800- 1000 yards or about 4 skeins of Red Heart Super Saver yarn. In the video, I need 2 skeins of super saver stripes and one skein of the Caron One Pound yarn. I still have about 1/2 of the Caron yarn left. Size I hook 4 stitch markers Scissors, yarn needle, and tape measure Beginning round: Make a magic ring or a ring of about chain 4. ch1 and do 8 sc in the ring. Working in continuous rounds. Row 1: *3 sc in the next stitch, with a stitch marker, mark th...

Many people have asked how to change the size of this pattern. I have not experimented with this pattern enough to truly know the answer, except try different yarn types, hooks sizes, and experimenting the amount of dc's in row 1. Speaking of row 1, if you know how to do the magic ring, you can do that instead of putting 14 dc into a single chain. Edit June 17, 2021: I now have a video for these slippers: This slipper has the front and back post dc's around the entire slipper. I think this gives the slipper a thick textured around the entire foot. So here is my pattern for th...

Materials: worsted weight yarn, size 4 size g hook or any yarn and hook size you would like as a donut. scissors yarn needle stuffing of your choosing - the green donut in the picture has a marble in it. - I have used leftover yarn scraps and have used small pieces of plastic grocery bags - of course, you can use Polyfil. Chain 18, slip stitch with the first chain. You don't have to, but working in the back hump of the chain might make it easier to sew up the center.
