This is a lovely basket and Im actually anxious to get started on it. Ive never worked with t-shirt yarn before but it looks very different from stranded yarn. I collect baskets, so Im always looking for new designs. This is a sturdy looking example, so if I like the first one, Ill probably make a few more. I keep baskets in just about every room to catch objects that should live elsewhere.

This basket is so cute! I've made a lot of scarves and cowls, but this idea is a great way to crochet something that is both cute and practical.

I dont have any super bulky yarn or t shirt yarn either. Would this work if I used a couple of strands of different yarns together? I think that it would as long as I get the gauge correct. This could turn out to be quite interesting also with whatever yarn textures and colors that I can come up with to make mine out of. I am up for a challenge.
