How To Crochet A Round Basket

Crochet this round basket to decorate your seaside or farm house home. You can use it as a bread basket or a catch-all for coasters and mug rugs. Adding a fabric covered cardboard liner, will give it a bit of sturdiness, and increase it’s decorating value. I will show you how to add that liner in a video I have produced for you. I really enjoy adding stiff linings to crocheted baskets. The free crochet pattern is below, just keep scrolling, or you can purchase an ad free pdf at Ravelry or Etsy for less than a cup of coffee.

I sometimes use affiliate links in my posts. This won’t cost you anything, but will help offset the cost of yarn and other supplies needed, so that I can continue bringing you crochet patterns and craft ideas. Thank you so much for your support.

This video will show you how to add a liner to this round basket.

Coordinate this round basket with the Summer Celebration Table Runner. Place the round basket on a side table, or just put it in the middle of the table with your Summer Celebration Placemats, either would be a decorating win! There is also a square napkin basket to help create a beautiful table setting.
