Winthrop Basket

"The Winthrop Baskets are full of texture created by using front post stitches. The pattern is a two round repeat for easy remembering. This is not a beginner friendly pattern, but its a great one to learn new skills. Find a bulky yarn for the body of the basket and a cotton worsted yarn for the handles. These baskets are light weight and soft making them perfect for presents under the tree, Easter baskets, or all year yarn storage. "
