Here’s a great basket pattern for the little guys in your life- Mr. Googly Eyed Alien Monster! Awesome for filling with eggs at Easter or for toting around toys the rest of the year! Hang it on the doorknob to fill with the small things you find around the house. Leave it on the table at random times with little gifts to surprise your little ones - so many different uses!

Your finished alien basket will measure approximately 7” wide x 4.5” tall

This crochet pattern is written in standard US crochet terms. Photos are included where they may be helpful. This pattern is crocheted in a continuous spiral. If you are comfortable with single, double, increases and decreases, or ready to stretch your skills just a bit then this is a great project for you! Each line of the pattern includes a finished stitch number to help ensure your basket turns into an awesome alien versus a wonky bowl.

Gauge for this basket is simply to have your stitches tight. If you find your stitches loose, then please move down to a smaller hook.
