There is something so fanciful about the little pouf shapes on my new crochet basket.

I wanted to try something a bit different with these cluster stitches, so I gathered double treble crochet stitches with a single crochet post stitch. Once you get a feel for the pattern worked in the round, it’s really fun to wrangle these tall stitches into such a cute little package.

Crochet baskets make wonderful summer crochet projects for organizing little bits around your house or perhaps for some make-ahead holiday gifts.

Six and a half inches in diameter, this soft basket is a beautiful handmade organizer you will love to display and share with others.
