Introducing the Christmas Basket
You can make this basket using any super bulky (6) weight yarn. I used Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick and I highly recommend this as the best yarn for this bowl as its thickness adds to the strength of the bowls structure.

To make the basket firm I used an H 5mm hook which is smaller than the recommended hook size for this weight of yarn. This ensures your basket stands up nicely and holds its shape.

Using Christmas colours helps to get this great Christmas folksy look. Such a beautiful addition to any space. It is perfect for holding chocolates of other Christmas goodies.

For those new to crochet, there are left and right-handed videos on my Carroway Crochet YouTube channel that will demonstrate the single crochet and half double crochet stitch.
