Or Storage Wars…
I have taken to crocheting little baskets as a means of de-stressing. There is a bit of a history in basket making and the troubled mind. In the grim days of institutions for those suffering with their mental health a key therapy was basket weaving! Admittedly they were proper baskets made with willow not my woolly numbers.

The multi-colour jumble contains 3 storeage baskets.

If nothing else my double crochet stitches are improving and I have worked out counting for the round. I have used aran weight yarn from the stash and a 4mm hook to give a tighter weave.
Over the weeks I have made quite a few of these and now I am running out of things to put in them π
Woolly wishes,

These look fab, Jane and what a great way to stash bust. β€ Xx

These look great – perhaps you could consider ‘offering them’ with your other items at your ‘brick & mortar’ storefront???

The blue+yellow baskets brought the Three Bears of the Goldilocks tale to mind. π Your baskets look great, and it’s wonderful that they help you de-stress too.

Thank you. Very organic – a hook, some yarn and a rom-com on the TV and see where it takes you π
