Scrappy Nesting Bowls

"Use up some scraps and get organized at the same time! Crochet nesting bowls are a fun way to store small things like keys, change, buttons, or even stitch markers. With 5 bowls in the set, there’s a perfect size for all of it. The confetti like appearance of these nesting bowls is created by using 3 strands of yarn together at a time. Three strands of worsted yarn together make the equivalent of a super-thick, jumbo yarn. Using this thick yarn bundle at a tight gauge gives the sides of the bowls the strength to stand up straight. "

Yarn Weight(4) Medium Weight/Worsted Weight and Aran (16-20 stitches to 4 inches)

Crochet GaugeUse pattern as gauge swatch – bottom of bowl 1 should measure approximately 2.5 inches in diameter.

Exact gauge is not critical for this project. Stitches should be tight enough for the bowls to stand up on their own without support.
