☘️ Plant lady in training, basket game strong

I’ve become that plant lady. Well, a plant lady in training. I’ve adopted ten new house plants over the last few months (let’s not talk about the ones that didn’t survive). I wanted to jazz up their containers, so I whipped up this herringbone basket.

It comes in three sizes and works up in super bulky yarn, so it’s quick. The herringbone single crochet gives it a sturdy, textured look that’s perfect for plants or storage.
