Baby Nursery – part 2: Crochet Baby Spa Basket
Posted: February 19, 2013 Filed under: Craft & DIY, Home Decor & Accessories | Tags: basket, crochet, DIY, nursery, spa, yarn 6 CommentsMy initial plan was to make a fabric basket for organizing my baby bath and care stuffs, but then my addiction to crochet began so the plan was switched to crochet basket. I had been asking mr. Google for any free basket pattern, none was as I wanted… after seeing many crochet basket images, I thought I will just make it in all single crochet, no pattern needed, keep it simple and easy.
I used Lily Sugar’n Cream 100% cotton medium#4 yarn in natural color, the hook is F.
Start with making chain as desired length then continue with single crochet as many row as wanted to get the width. Once you have the rectangle you can build up the row vertically to get the height… that’s it!
It looks great! How easy and functional.
Thanks!
Oh, what a cute idea! I’m going to have to make one of these! 🙂 If you decide you want to do a basket at some point, I have found a REALLY easy/fun way to do it: http://atlantamomofthree.wordpress.com/2012/12/14/sweet-diy-nursery-basket/ 😀
I’d need it in the future as she will get more stuffs in her room 🙂 thanks for sharing.
I love your basket pattern and I’d like to make one for my bathroom counter. I’m a complete beginner. Can you please tell me what stitch you used to transition from the flat bottom to the vertical sides? Thank you very much.
sorry for the late reply… I just did chains around then continue with sc on the top of each chain.. hopefully this helps.
