This crochet basket marries style with function for a great way to accent a room. Stitched in our bulky Bernat Plush yarn, basket is worked in the round from the base up in one solid color, while the sides are worked in rounds using basic tapestry crochet techniques (color changes). Finally, the top edges are finished with reverse single crochet. Measuring approx. 12” in diameter by 10” high, it’s a useful accent in any space.
