Make Your Own Rectangle Crochet Basket

This Rectangle Crochet Basket pattern is a great option for organization and storage. They are great for storing anything from hand towels.....toys....your crochet supplies and most of your other utilities.

I have used Bulky Yarn to make this Basket. You you can trying making one with any yarn of your choice...... Chunky Yarn..... Macrame Chord....Jute Twine... or just use Three strands of yarn to give it a bulky texture. Just remember to change the hook size according to the yarn you would like to use.

You can easily adjust the size of this basket according to your needs. Just change the starting number of Chain Stitches to make it bigger or smaller.

Materials Used:-

• Bulky Yarn
• 6mm Crochet Hook

Border Round:-

I used Reverse Single Crochet to make the Border. This gives the Basket a Textured Finish.

Start the round with Chain 1,

1 Reverse single crochet in the rest of the stitches.

Weave off the yarn ends.......... and they are ready to be used....!!!!!!!

This stitch is similar to the standard single crochet, but instead of inserting your hook in the next stitch to your "RIGHT" you insert your hook into the next stitch to the "LEFT" and create your Single Crochet stitch there.

To make a Reverse Single Crochet:-

1. Insert your hook in the next stitch to the right.
2. Yarn over, and draw the yarn through the stitch.
3. Yarn over and draw the yarn through the 2 loops on the hook.
