Product Details
Create a beautiful chunky basket using natural cotton rope, perfect for storage and display in a bedroom or bathroom. The pattern includes full written and photo instructions for both right and left handed crocheters - covering how to craft the base and sides and how to add integrated handles. The coarseness of the material creates a rigid basket that keeps its shape, even when empty. The “medium” basket is 27 cm in diameter and 18 cm high. The pattern uses UK terms.
This basket uses 6mm cotton macrame cord or 6mm upholstery piping cord. Use a 100% cotton twisted rope ("12 ends") rather than the woven wrapped variety. This rope/cord is typically sold by weight, and the Medium sized basket pattern uses a full 1kg roll (approx 130m).
The baskets shown on the front of the pattern, and on this website are nested small and medium baskets, but have 1 extra row on the sides to make them 3cm taller than the basic pattern. If you work firmly you can get this extra height from your roll of cord.

- Notes
- It is best to use a solid 10mm aluminium hook with no added handle. Plastic hooks can bend when pulling the rope through.
