Just something to store my “on the go” projects in to keep them off the coffee table.
I used a super chunky colour change yarn for the base and first few rows of the sides and then switched to a double thickness of a toning grey chunky yarn for the remainder of the sides.
I wanted the basket to be sturdy so used a 5.5mm hook for the base and sides.
The look of the handles was changed slightly by including 2 rows of dc in the handle rows. It gave more of a “letterbox” appearance to them.
I also added a row of ss around the top in some leftover yarn from the base which finished it off nicely.
Finally I stiffened the base and first few rows of the sides with a PVA solution allowed to dry overnight.
Not bad for under £6.
I could do with knowing why my sides went baggy, if anyone can help out.
