A cute pumpkin basket, great for storing Halloween candy, your keys by the door, or to make a boo basket!

Please note: this pattern works best with bulky yarn, but smaller baskets (under 10cm) can easily be made with DK yarn as well. You’ll want to use a slightly smaller hook size than recommended so that the basket is nice and firm and stands up by itself. I recommend going down 1.5-2mm from the suggestion on the yarn wrapper. Sometimes it takes a little bit of trial and error to get the tension and hook size right, so I suggest doing a couple of rounds with your chosen yarn to start with. If you have any questions about this, feel free to drop me a message!
