We’re crocheting . . .
A basket!! Once crocheted the basket is felted to size .
You can do amazing things with just 1 crochet stitch and this basket is a simple and practical make designed to try, explore and play with a few of the most basic techniques. Afterwards you can try some wet felting to soften the colours, tighten up the crochet and firm up the shape. Felting is optional but it's a great way to disguise anything you're not happy with (nothing to see here)! This bit can be a little unpredictable, but that's all part of the fun of felting!
This crochet-along is suitable for . . .
Absolute beginners. Never tried. Never lifted a crochet hook!

What you’ll need to bring . . .
An 8.0mm crochet hook*
Super-chunky yarn, 100% wool and suitable for felting, and in as many colours as you like*
* You’ll need approximately 100g of yarn.
If you plan to do some felting it’s important to ensure the yarn you choose has not been treated to prevent it shrinking!! I used Drops Snow and Drops Andes.
If you don't want to felt your basket you can use any super-chunky yarn but I do recommend going down to maybe a 5.0mm or 6.0mm crochet hook.

The crochet pattern
I have stitch markers, scissors and needles to borrow, but you’re welcome to bring your own
Tea and treats
When & where?
