Yarn Stash Basket

"I enjoyed making the small stash baskets so much I decided to see what I could do with 3-strands of medium weight yarn and I crocheted this Yarn Stash Basket. This container is great for so many purposes - from holding your WIP yarns to using to hold mittens, scarves and hats by the front door. Crocheted by working with 3-strands of medium weight held together this basket works up quickly and uses just over 3 balls of Red Heart Super Saver Yarn (236 yds balls). Have fun with your yarn!
