Whip up this handy little storage basket using cotton yarn scraps you have on hand with this Round About Basket Crochet Pattern.

These little baskets are easy to work and can be made in less than a few hours. Using a wooden (or other medium) base really helps to cut down on the time it takes to make and makes it extra sturdy!

The basket is worked from the bottom up to the top. You will begin by crocheting a foundation round into a pre made basket bottom. My base, with predrilled holes, has a 6 inch diameter, however you can use any size you wish and adjust the pattern as needed.
