Rectangle Crochet Basket With Handles

What would be better than a Basket when you think of organizing your stuff. I love making Crochet Baskets. They are a great option if you are looking out for a quick organizing crochet project. Using the same pattern you can make them in various sizes of your choice by  increasing the number of rounds in the base of the basket.

Today am sharing the Pattern for this pretty dual toned Rectangle Basket with handles. The handles of the basket makes it very easy to carry around.




Materials Used:-
Bulky Yarn
6mm Crochet Hook

Notes:- 
For the whole pattern the Starting Chain 1 is not counted as a stitch.
It is just to bring the yarn to a working height.

AD-FREE, PRINTER-FRIENDLY PDF PATTERN:

The written pattern and photo tutorial is given below along with a free video tutorial. This pattern is also available as an ad-free, printer-friendly pdf pattern that can be purchased on Ravelry . Please click the link below to purchase the PDF Pattern.
