DIY Moses Basket | crochet tutorial

[@haley6969]

I’m going to alter this to make a dog bed. I wish I’d seen it when my kids were babies!

[@lissac67]

So I just ordered a new base. My old base has 118 holds. I am going to start over once it arrives since I have two more months. lol I like the way you do the stitches to the base better in this version, so will start over and see if I can make due with the 86-90 holes. I kept feeling this one had way too many holes. I didn't skip any, but the stitches aren't as neat looking, they seem very cramped. But skipping holes didn't look nice to me. I'll update more once i get the new base and begin again!

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you! Yes, please share updates on how it goes ❤️

[@jerribresnahan8158]

@@lissac67 I agree. My first base had 108 holes. I took it down to 100 and it was perfect. Now the largest base I can get has 84 holes and I am struggling with the wall staying straight. They lean in. I have ripped it out so many times the cord is looking fuzzy. Idk

[@lissac67]

I am in the middle of making my first moses basket right now for my grandson who is arriving in May. This is perfect timing because it addresses some of the questions I had. Thank you, beautiful work! I am obsessed!

I just finished this for my first grandchild due in November. I loved making it and creating what I know is a new family heirloom.

[@marythomas2357]

Can I ask how long did it take to make🥰

[@tracymorten1425]

I have never done any Crochet before this project and this was very quick and turned out perfectly. My husband made our own base with 100 holes and got it etched with a message on the bottom. Thank you for this fantastic tutorial so easy to follow!

[@yarnTh3ory]

That is so great! I love this so much 🥹 thank you for sharing!

[@ajboit]

What did your husband use to make it? I’m thinking my husband should be able to help me too since they are kind of speedy to buy! Thanks in advance!

[@marythomas2357]

How did he make it with the 100 holes( dimensions etc) I have a friend that has a glow forge that I’m thinking would work and I love the idea of having a message added on the bottom

[@LaurenSymmes]

I finished this version of the basket with the new base! I used the linked wood base in the same size (29.5"x16") and mine had 86 holes. I did the basket 3 times to get the hook size right, but ended up doing one stitch in every hole with a 15mm hook. I did the non-hooded version and it came out great!

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you for the feedback! I’m glad it came out great!

[@liannecuscani6177]

Hi @lauren ! Did you use the 15mm hook for all the rounds, including the setup round? My basket is narrowing using the 86 hole base and 9mm hook, so a I am going to try the 15mm hook you mentioned, but wondering how far back I should unravel my basket. Thanks!

[@LaurenSymmes]

@liannecuscani6177 The set up round I used a smaller hook just to make it easier to get through the holes! But for everything else I used the 15mm.

[@beckyharris3643]

Great updated version! Thank you! I made two of the old version for a friends twins and will make two additional for the May and June arrivals of a great niece and nephew! I was very sore with neck/back/hand pain for days after finishing the first two but it’s so worth it!! You didn’t add the extra corner stitches in this version..the basket’s appearance is much improved without them! Thank you for your clear, patient, slow paced tutorial! I love all of them!

[@sugnspice]

How did the baskets hold up? Did you have issues with them collapsing or folding in on itself?

[@yarnTh3ory]

Thank you so much! ❤️You have been on a roll!

[@brianarichardson6911]

Mine was collapsing in on itself too as soon as I finished. So I'm wondering how to correct this??

[@LaurenSymmes]

I just started this project today and using the old directions, I was already messed up after the first row. I'm so glad you posted this new updated tutorial - the timing is perfect! I'll update on how it goes! My Project Details: I used the linked wood base in the same size (29.5"x16") and mine only had 86 holes. I did the basket 3 times to get the hook size right, but ended up doing one stitch in every hole with a 15mm hook.

[@yarnTh3ory]

Yes keep me updated! (The vendor just released the bases with the new specs this month. ) Edit: 22 Feb 2024 - Just learned from the vendor that the new bases will have 86 holes. I will add my comments on that base once I have a chance to work with it.

[@sugnspice]

@@yarnTh3oryI ordered as well and was told the board will have 86 holes but they will shoot for 90. My question for you is, will we have to make any adjustments to the pattern since we won’t have 100 or 110 holes? Also how long did it take you from start to finish?

[@yarnTh3ory]

I haven’t worked with that version of the base yet but will report back with my exact thoughts when I have a chance. I’m curious since there is a reduction in the number of holes if the holes are bigger. I’m making an assumption that you will not need to skip any holes.

[@sugnspice]

@@yarnTh3ory Hi 86 holes 12 mm 10 apart is exactly what they responded. Also I want to correct what I said earlier, she said the goal was 90 holes but it worked out to be 86

[@penelopewilson3381]

I got on your site to see how to just make tossils; however, I watched the WHOLE basket demonstration. You are WONDERFUL!! I followed another set of instructions and my basket is done. I should rip it out and start over but will learn from my mistakes and follow your instructions next time! Your video and instructions are so MUCH better than the one I followed. From attaching the yarn to the base to the handles to the invisible join stitch is much nicer...easier! I am going to buy more yarn and make another one! Thank you!

[@yarnTh3ory]

I am so happy that the tutorials were helpful! Thank you so much for the feedback! Definitely share photos when your basket is complete! I would love to see it!

Hi I have finished my basket and it's lovely they only thing I'm not happy with is the shape. Instead of the sides going straight up the first four rows go in and then it goes straight up.

When you talk about skipping stitches in round 1 so that it doesn't "fan out" - what are we aiming for in round 1? Should it be lying flat with the base or curling up? Thanks for the video!

[@yarnTh3ory]

Ultimately you want the walls of the basket to stand up straight. If they “fan out” that means there are too many stitches. If they taper in, too little stitches or they are spaced too far apart. As mentioned in the video everyone will need to skip stitches. It will all depend on your base and the materials you are using.

I made the bassinet three times when preparing for the video. I used a 12mm, 10mm and the 9mm. They all come out nicely. The only real difference is that the 9mm hook fits into the holes of the base and the stitches are slightly tighter.

This process can involve a bit of trial and error. I suggestion trying up different variations until you get the combination that works best for your base.

I would love to try making this Moses basket. My fiancé and I are getting married in November and want to start trying for a baby soon after.

Would it be possible to make a double layer crochet of an oval shape the size I would use if I was using the board at the bottom? ❤

Are you asking if you can crochet the base or crochet a cover for the base? The sentence wasn’t clear.

Crochet a base instead of using a board.
