Crochet pattern for a square basket   Crochet pattern for a basket with handle

These baskets/storage baskets are made in a natural style.

The yarn used makes the storage baskets very sturdy in the end.
Everyone can add their own individual touch with some lovely decorations. 
I have explained everything step by step in a multi-page pattern and included lots of pictures. This means beginners can also work well from my patterns. 
At the end of the pattern there is also a “Small Crochet School” for better understanding.

A basket of a very different kind is this gnome house. It’s perfect for storing yarn, including needles and supplies. And as a bread roll basket, it puts you in a good mood first thing in the morning.


The basket can also be crocheted quickly and easily by beginners with basic crochet knowledge. Every step is described in detail in the pattern.

The colors can be varied however you like. So leftover yarn can also be used up for crocheting. Cotton with a yardage of 120 m/50 g was used here.

By the way, my shop also has the matching gnomes for it, as well as a value set of gnomes with the house. They look especially lovely during the Christmas season.

Craft basket, not just for Bobbels
Baskets in every size are always useful, and you can never have enough of them. That’s what I thought when I was standing in front of the yarn at Aldi and 2 packs of felting wool jumped into my shopping cart.
This is what came out of it the next day. A little felted basket with sturdy side walls and pockets. The best part is, I didn’t have to crochet the pockets separately and sew them on; it all happens in one go!
So no crocheting extra pockets, no sewing anything together, just keep working around in spirals.
Material:
  • 2 packs of Crelando felting wool from Aldi
  • (4 x 50 g each)
  • 50 g = 55 m
  • 100% virgin wool
  • 4 ring carabiners (alternatively key rings)
  • Crochet hook size 6 (the front of the package says 7-8, in the description size 5.5. But the yarn seems a bit thinner to me than other felting wool, so I decided to crochet with this yarn. However, since I crochet a bit tightly, I use size 6)
  • Not absolutely necessary: 2 needles from a set of double-pointed needles or circular knitting needle size 6
  • I knitted the handles, but if you prefer to crochet, you only need to crochet a suitable strap.
  • Decorations, if you like
  • Scissors, needle
Size before washing:
  • Base diameter 33 cm
  • Height: 26 cm
  • Small pockets / field width: 14 x 14 cm
  • Handles: 40 cm****
Size after washing:
  • Base diameter 18 cm
  • Height: 15 cm
  • Small pockets / field width: 11 x 11 cm
  • Handles: 19 cm
