I moved my first steps into the crochet world by working on easy doilies and table runners projects. I was loving the idea of adding handmade creations to the house to give my very personal touch to it.
Designing amigurumi is now my full time activity, but I absolutely love, from time to time, working on cute decorative crochet pieces such as succulents, blankets, pillow covers...
Today I'm super delighted to share with you a project to create a 3 pieces basket set that I made working with 100% natural jute cord and a beautiful mustard cotton yarn.
I like how versatile this set is. You can simply display it to decorate a room or use it to store and collect stuff in your house.
What about create cute plant holder? ...just adjust the height of the cotton section and create something that is just perfect for you!
The three baskets have different sizes:
- small 3.5" x 1" 3/8
- medium 5” x 1.5”
- large 6" x 1" 5/8
Here's the FREE pattern!
