NEW RELEASE: The Interlocking Baskets pattern set is 30% off now through 8/31/25 MT! No code needed!

This interlocking crochet Diagonals Basket can be made in five sizes and has a similar design on both the inside and outside. All five sizes fit together to save space when not in use.

This basket is one of five designs included in the Interlocking Baskets pattern set so you can make a matched set with one design or mix them up as you please! You can see a video of the full set in use here: https://kathrynclarkcrochet.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Interlocking-Baskets.mp4

The basket is worked in the round from the bottom of the basket to the top border. The pattern includes round-by-round written instructions with lots of photos. Charts are provided as a representation of the inside and outside of the basket. As an option, plastic needlepoint canvas can be used between the base layers for added support.

This basket incorporates diagonals to create the design. If you haven’t tried diagonals on an interlocking filet mesh project yet, you can learn how on my YouTube Channel! You can also read about it on my blog: Interlocking Filet Mesh with Diagonals!
