A rectangular version of the round Diamond Trellis Basket! The basket is worked seamlessly in the round from the centre base out.

You can customise this pattern to make a basket of your desired dimensions - instructions are included.

This pattern uses the diamond trellis stitch to add stiffness to the sides- a video tutorial is included.

You may use any stash yarn you have lying around - just hold a few strands together to increase the yarn weight. This project is good for using up any scratchy or stiff yarns as the texture will help the basket to hold shape.
