Crochet Lace Cover For Foldable Storage Bins

  • 2 The Over Brook Lace Cube Cover is the third in the Lace Cube Cover Series.
  • 3 Over Brook Lace Cube Cover Crochet Pattern
    • 3.1 Notes:
      • 3.1.1 1. The bottom will stretch and be taut if making it for a collapsible cube. 2. There are notes to help you if you choose to use a different sized box or cube to make your own cover.
  • 4 One Collapsible Cube:
    • 4.1 This pattern will fit a 10.5” x 10.5” x 10.75” cube. This would be great to use on any box or cube. Here are tips to help you along.
      • 4.1.1 1. This stitch design uses a multiple of 11 stitches. Take note of ending stitch count at “Round2”. To produce the lace pattern add or subtract 11 stitches, depending on the size of box or cube that you are covering. 2. Any square or rectangle box or cube of any size can be used as long as the base covers the bottom. If covering a box, I recommend extending the base 1/4″ past the edge. If covering a collapsible cube I recommend the base be 1/4″ smaller. (See photos) 3. IMPORTANT! After you add the yarn cover it can be a tight fit for some of those storage bins to fit into the cubbies of a cube organizer. The bins need to be an inch or 1 ½” smaller than the cubby that holds the bin. These bins look so good sitting on the top of a book case or on a bench by the front door to catch “stuff”.

Crochet Lace Cover For Foldable Storage Bins
Square Base is 10” x 10” The base will need to be slightly smaller if covering a cube, so that it will be taut and not sag.

Following instructions will use rounds instead of rows. Do not turn throughout the rest of the pattern.

You will execute the corners (3 sc stitches) into the upper part of a hdc stitch, or a turning chain that was made while making the base. The corner execution will not be executed under the two loops of a hdc stitch, it will always be a side corner of a hdc or a turning ch, which ever applies.

Round 1:

ch 1, make a slight turn to start down the side & execute 3 sc at the corner; 30 sc evenly spaced down the 1st side; 3 sc at 2nd corner; make a slight turn, 30 sc across the next edge; make a slight turn, 3 sc at 3rd corner; 30 sc evenly spaced up the 3rd side; 3 sc in 4th corner; make a slight turn, 30 sc across the last edge; join w/slp st to beg. ch1 (132 sc)

Round 21 & 22:

Repeat Rounds 19 & 20. End off and weave in all ends.

Optional:

Use whatever method to block and shape the cover you would like. I recommend covering your cube or box in plastic, then proceed to dampen with water from a spray bottle, or use spray starch and shape the cover in place. Use hot glue or favorite gluing method to attach to the cube or box. I do not recommend spray glue as it attracts dirt.

Do you have to block the cover?

No you don’t have to block the cover. If you are happy with stretching the lace cover and using hot glue at the top to glue it in place, it is easier and works just fine.

Edge Option 2

Round 18:

ch 1, sc in joining st; ch3, skp 2 st’s, sc in nxt; skp 2 st’s, 5dc shell in nxt, skp 2 st’s; *sc in nxt st; ch3, skp 2 st’s, sc in nxt; skp 2 st’s, 5dc shell in nxt, skp 2 st’s;* 11x; join w/slp st to beg. sc.
