Easter Basket

"I love the idea of crocheting Easter Baskets for an Easter Egg Hunt, but obviously, yarn can be a bit flimsy. To remedy this, I used 2 strands together, which strengthened and stiffened the basket. I used a standard basketweave stitch and worked in the round. It was extremely quick and easy to make. - The pattern is written in both UK and US terms. The US terms are in [parenthesis]. - You need to work in the round, starting with a magic ring. I hope this brings you creative joy and inspiration."

NotesIn order to work 2 strands together, you can use each end of the 100g ball of yarn, OR, wind 2 separate balls from the 100g ball.
