Start
off you will need
1
large crochet hook I used a 6mm
2
strands of yarn/wool (mix what ever colours you want or take 2 of
same colour)
1
needle to sew in threads later
5
stitch markers or 4 strands of wool in different colours of what you
making
What
stitch will you be using is here: (us terms)
Magic
circle
sc
= single crochet
hdc
= half dubble crochet
ch
= chain
st
= stitch
We
are now working in rounds so no slip stitch
if
you are unsure about any off the stitch please look them up
remember
if you want tighter stitch or have thin wool then you can change the
stitch up and make sc instead of hdc
Now
you set to go so lets start
Row
1: make a magic circle ch 2 then make 8 hdc in the circle do
not slip stitch
Row
2 go direct in to next st and make 2 hdc in that st place marker
on first st , make 2 hdc in every st in every st dont slip
stitch
Row
3 go direct In to the stitch with the marker 2 hdc in same st
(place marker in first st) 1 hdc in next st *2 hdc in next st , 1 hdc
in next st * Repeat for full round from * to *
Row
4 In to the marked st do 2 hdc do 1 hdc in next 2 st * 2 hdc
in next st and 1 hdc in next 2 st * repeat around
Here
is the pattern keep adding 1 hdc in every round :) and place marker
in first st every round
Row
5 2 hdc in marked stitch 1 hdc in next 3 st * 2 hdc in next st
1 hdc in next 3 st* reapeat around
Row
6 2 hdc in marked st 1 hdc in
next 4 st 2 hdc in next st 1 hdc in next 4 st* repeat around
now
it depends on you how big you want it this pattern can be made to
make the smallest baskets to the biggest one :) when you got to the
size you want stop in the marked st and we begin working on the sides
Row
7 do 1 hdc in every stitch
around in the Back loops place marker in first st
row
8 – 15 do 1 hdc in every
stitch around place marker in first st
Row
16
now
keep going until you get the hight you want and when you got to the
hight you want then do a hdc in marked st and now fold the basket so
it gets flat place 4 marker for both handles ( I counted from both
sides 9 st and place my marker in the 9 st from every side) you take
what ever number you like depending on how big handles you want
do
1 hdc up to the first marker I now chained 16 , if you want bigger
handle chain more stitches
hdc
in the next stitch marker and keep hdc to next marker do same thing
there chain 16 and hdc in the next stitch marker . Hdc around to
the starting point .
Row
17 hdc all the way around and
in every stitch even the handles
Row
18 now you sc around and over
the handle
fasten
off and sew in all the threads
all
done :)
now
place what ever you want in it. Remember you can make small baskets
and big baskets mix and match any colour of your choice
