Crochet Basket Tote

There’s something about a crochet basket that gets me every time. Useful. Beautiful. Equally fun to make and use.

I love that this is a double duty basket. It looks great displayed in your house with some lightweight books or other fun things inside. But, those handles are also useful so it also doubles as a fun little tote.

Material

  • US L 11/8.00 mm crochet hook
  • 9 oz Super Bulky (# 6) Yarn, Sample used Caron Tea Cakes in Winterberry
  • Stitch Marker for keeping track of rows (optional, but helpful)
  • Tapestry needle and scissors

Crochet Basket Tote Finished Size:

Approximately 10” across and 9-1/2” tall
