DIY Crocheted Basket

Hi, thanks for watching. Hopefully, I got the names of the stitches right.
Bernat Maker Home Dec Yarn (I bought it in the color Cream. It's currently unavailable but there are other colors.)
amzn.to/3cxxO1k
I used a G or 6 crochet hook.
1st Round (Magic Circle): 6 single crochet stitches
2nd round: 2 (amount of single crochet stitches in each stitch)
3rd round: 2, 1, 2, 1
4th round: 2, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1
5th round: 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1
6th round: 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1
7th round: 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1
8th round: 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1
9th- 20th round: 1 single crochet in each stitch
To finish the basket, I made a round of slip stitches.

Best crochet video. You used light colored yarn, a light background, no flashy nails and you went slow enough for us beginners to understand. I want to make a basket for my knitting. Thank you.

[@carolstefan7662]

Update... I have already made four baskets!!!

[@deepoceanblue6527]

Yeah, it looks easy to do it.. I oso wana try to make this 😁.. Thank you!

[@Anything_lifestyle]

It is soo hard😢

[@felicitywoodruffe4087]

​@@Anything_lifestyle Can I offer advice ? Get a pen and paper Play video Write down each step for each row leaving nothing out Get your hook and yarn Now begin ...Read 1st step play video ...copy the step and stop the video.tick that step off on your paper. Continue to follow each step ticking as you complete each row. Do not forget to slip stitch your row end to close the circle and to make a chain to begin the next row . You can use Bobby pin. Safety pin.paper clip.a piece of wire or even a dark coloured strand of yarn to Mark where each row ends .if using yarn use hook to pull yarn through the stitch to mark row end.

This is the FIRST time I have EVER understood how to do the "Magic circle". THANK YOU!!

[@rebeccagoodrich124]

Me too! I've never been able to figure out how to do it no matter how many tutorials I watched!

[@kittiewvon4882]

Agreed

[@emilycowart8879]

Okay but using a Bobby pin as a stitch marker is the most genius thing I’ve ever seen! Why have I never thought of this?! Could’ve saved so much money on buying stitch markers.

[@hollyannsatornino3089]

While it is cheaper and an awesome idea! I prefer stitch markers as their smaller... Bobby pin seems to be in the way

[@kimonaNo1]

I use paper clips.

[@fashionforwardmom]

I use paper clips

You can also use paper clips

Very easy to follow.clear instruction ,no loud music distracting from instruction .no squeaky high pitched lous commentary .close up imagary.written instruction to back up the visual instruction . Excellent tuition .

[@yippieangel]

first attempt couldn't make it right (uneven bottom, weird bulging), now on the 2nd attempt and it is much better. a tip is to watch this on .5 speed, helps a lot for beginners like me. thank you for the guide video! easy to understand and you went thorough.

[@hiyella04]

Extremely thorough explanation and awesome view showing how to make the basket. Thank you!!

[@tesstucker3311]

In case anyone was curious, this works with other yarn sizes too! I made a giant one with 25mm Bernat gray and it’s beautiful!

[@arling7482]

Hello how do you make the sides stand properly or do I just have to live with it?

[@shahiee]

Thank you, as a beginner I really appreciate it. I’ve watched so many videos, they were doing everything so fast I had to slow down the video up to 0.5 . You explained everything in such a nice form, just thank you.

[@priyayanambaka4603]

It is so helpful to have the pattern written . Its a great guiding point along with your vocals and skills. Cant wait to check out more of your tutorials! Thank you for your great work

[@sharonsettle9079]

The best tutorial I've seen, thank you, you are great at showing instructions.

[@megancolley569]

thank you so much for being so thorough with your instructions!! i just started learning to crochet and i get so confused without super detailed and clear steps, and this is the first time it started to click and i felt confident with what i was doing! :)

[@giovannamargaritelli4110]

Seriously this is the best tutorial EVER good clear images, slow instructions and simple language, I hope you have lots more for me to watch.

i wish all crochet vids were as helpful as this, thank you!!!!

[@robinmurray413]

Wonderful basket tutorial! I used peaches & creme and a size G hook. Worked up nice an sturdy! Thank you so much.

[@angelas4email]

Thank you for this great easy to follow pattern!! Your explanation of the magic ring in particular was super clear! I've never been able to figure them out before now!

[@coffeebeforemascara]

OMG and I can see exactly what you are doing. And if I'm still not 1,000% sure, I can just slow down the playback speed. You are a great instructor!

[@kittylover7215]

this is the best tutorial i think i have ever seen! i could never understand how to crochet because every video i watched was to confusing, but, this video made a lot of sense and was really easy to follow!! TY

[@vickenator]

Really easy to follow and thank you for it! I've been looking for a different method for doing baskets and will definitely give this a try. I think the sc/ss combo to finish off a round will help alleviate the bunching/rippling at the base that I've been getting via my other method.

[@janejanda2278]

Huge thank you!! I can't wait to make some of these. Wonderful tutorial ❤!

[@allinsonsherratt418]

Wow - as a left handed, but ambidextrous individual, crochet has always been a " which hand to use " problem. Love amigurimi animals so decided to persevere. My technique is not pretty - still trying to knit (he ha), but I succeeded at my first attempt. I forsee many baskets in my future. Thank you for this calm, beautifully described demo. Loved it ❤️

[@Onyxpokemon]

I have never been able to understand how to correctly do the magic circle but this video is the first time I have been able to do it 🎉

[@tuturuga]

Hi, thanks so much for the video! I'm a complete beginner and I find there are couple of things that can be mentioned on the video that may help others here. I think it would be helpful if you could let us know the total number of stiches from each round so we all know that we are on the right track. Judging from the comments I think I'm not the only one who got confused. I also had to learn it the hard way that I shouldn't hook the slip stitch (from previous round) to close my round. Moreover NOT to start my first round (the 2 x single crochet) on the same slip stitch that I chained. Hope these make sense. I know you showed that on the vid but for beginner it just need to be clarified. Because for me at first, the first stitch was literally the next stitch. I made these two mistakes resulting in pentagon shaped base Having said that, I love your explanation of the increments (3rd round 2 1 = 3, 4th round 2 1 1 = 4) for each round. It makes perfect sense to me thus I can expand my base to 17 rounds. Plus I love the way you do the magic circle. P.S Sorry for many comment edits. I had to go through your vids so many times to make sense of the process plus to explain correctly

[@nooo7328]

now i realize i did it wrong bc i have a weird pentagon shape😭

[@ninanoorable]

i'm a beginner so i'm not sure but I think the numbers are 6 chains, 12 stitch (6X2), 18 (6X3), 24 (6X4) and so on.....

[@ninanoorable]

@@nooo7328 I was on an online course before and the tutor said that there are several ways to crochet in the round .. and one of them results in hexagon I think or atleast edges but it's no problem because as you make it bigger it starts to become more round and unnoticable..so you are not wrong I think

[@veniangelova794]

Hi! There is something not clear to me. The bobby pin to mark the end of a round - do you insert it into the last chain stitch of the round or into the slip stitch? Second, when you go over it, do you make a crochet stitch into the slip Stitch of the previous round or nothing? Thanks!

[@Caake.]

Your a life saver this is the first time people explained EVERY single step THANKYOU😭😭😭

[@Millie-fs5ew]

This actually makes me want to start crocheting! I always thought it would be too difficult to understand but your video really makes it easy for me, thank you!!

Hope you've started since. It's so much fun.

[@meenak3574]

Love this tutorial.. This is my first attempt at crocheting, been at it for 5 hours now. Almost done now.. I think i made a small mistake, so every time i ended the round, i think i did an extra stitch, so the basket looks more slanted one side, not a complete cylinder. I think with one or 2 practicses, i'll get this. But thanks for lottt for this easy tutorial.

[@patriciag7336]

Great tutorial and nice music !

[@jaynieblueyes2270]

Brilliant absolutely brilliant I have trouble in the UK sourcing American yarns, yours is such great quality (no offence to anyone) xx

[@belladicanio5206]

alot of people seem to be getting a shape that isnt a circle! that might be because instead chaining one to start your row, you should just go into the next stitch. chaining one leaves a points at the end of each round and it isnt a circle

[@hollyannsatornino3089]

Exactly! The chain 1 is unnecessary and confusing

[@bryangonzalez321]

Hi, when I try adding height, it just becomes wider instead of taller, do you know what I'm doing wrong and how I could fix it??

[@marlawetherell8785]

thank you for sharing this pattern, i am still finishing mine. only thing i had to keep pausing it at each round. i sure wish you would of had a printable pattern. also at the end of each round the stitch count. im so ocd, i like to make sure i have the right count, I did not even know what each round was to be.,I had afew extra's on some rounds but continued anyway. so far its working out im on the height part now. and i did use a bigger hook, i wanted it to be a bigger basket , plus I couldn't find my G hook, lol, probably with another project I haven't fininshed. I was going to use blue an white but started with blue forgot I was going to do the two colors but I will make another one. too.

[@nicoleeady889]

Does the material of the yarn help? I have aran wool which requires a 5mm hook. Will that make the basket more floppy? It seems you're using a sturdy, tight sort of yarn :)

Do you roughly know how many meters you needed for the basket? I am thinking of making this one with 3 mm macrame cord and one "ball" has 100 meters .. the one you used has almost 300 meters so not sure how many I would need .. thank you!! :)
