Technique Details

Sturdiness and durability of this geometric crochet basket is the result of combining coiled crochet technique with a tight waistcoat stitch.

If you have never crocheted over a coil, I recommend getting yourself acquainted with coiled crochet technique first. My Coiled Crochet Baskets with Handles (Pattern 305) would be a great place to start. Add it to your purchase, and get both patterns for only $4; that is 75% off on both patterns! Simply use coupon code LEARN2COIL309 at checkout. Note: Discount will only be applied if both Pattern 305 and Pattern 308 (the pattern you are currently viewing) are in cart. Contact me for assistance or with questions about this special offer at the email address below.
