Are you looking for a project where you can incorporate some of those yarn scraps you’ve been hanging onto? Check out this Scrap Basket crochet pattern!

This Scrap Basket crochet pattern is a great way to use up some of your yarn scraps in a very practical and cute way!

It’s a quick project that you will work using a premade base. I this case, I used a six inch wooden basket bottom that has the holes pre drilled into it. But you may use fabric, leather or another medium for your bottom!

The pattern is so easy to adjust and in the written pattern and video tutorial you will learn how to adjust the size and height.
