Crochet Rectangle Basket with Dividers made in rounds

Crochet Baskets are Perfect for Home Storage. They are a great option if you are looking out for a quick organizing crochet project.  The fun and the most awesome thing about making a Crochet Basket is that, you can make them in size of your choice with the same pattern. 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. Using different yarns gives you a different textured basket. They are of course pretty easy and quick to make.

Today am sharing the Pattern for this very useful Crochet Rectangle Basket with Dividers made in rounds. The dividers make the basket even more handy and easy to sort out your knickknacks. These are perfect for storing toys , yarn , needles or make them in bigger size and you can also store blankets , laundry and more.

I prefer using thicker yarn like T-shirt yarn, Bulky or Chunky yarn. They make those Crochet Baskets sturdy and stiff. You can make one with any yarn of your choice...... Chunky Yarn..... Macrame Chord....Jute Twine... or just use Two or 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.

Materials Used:-

Bulky Yarn

6 mm Crochet Hook

Size:- 

9/5 Inches- Can be Customized to any size of your choice.

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.

Just Remember :-

• Start each round with Chain 1(Not Counted as a Stitch, 1 Single Crochet in the same stitch.
• Mark each corner stitch.
• 3 Single Crochets in the marked corner stitches.
• As the size of the rectangle grows, the Single Crochets between the marked stitches will keep increasing.

Repeat 1 Single Crochet in each stitch untill its around 3 inches and weave off.

If you wish to make a deeper basket, make more rounds to  increase the size of the Divider.

Turning Base:-

Join yarn at the bottom stitch just below the Partition.

1 Backloop Single Crochet in each stitch around.

Once you reach the sides of the partition, yarn over and pull up a loop through the side stitch of the partition as well.

This way we will be able to join the partition along with the running stitches. 

Do not slip stitch, we will be working in continuous rounds.

Sides of the Basket:-

1 Single Crochet in each stitch untill the corner.

Once you reach the corner stitch:-

Yarn Over and pull up a loop, but do not finish the stitch.

You should have 3 loops on the hook.

Drop the first Loop , you should have 2 loops on the hook, yarn over and pull through these two loops.

Insert your hook into the dropped stitch.

Yarn over and pull through both the loops.

This will ensure perfect turned corners.

Continue with Single Crochets.
