How to Make a Coil Basket for Beginners

[@tina_h1]

Ty so much for this tutorial- I’m kind of addicted. I have made 4 already. Using twine from the dollar tree 😂- I just wanted to make sure I could do it before investing. Cuz as an “oooo that’s cute let me try” crafter I have waaaay too many 1/2 done projects.

[@MaCREmebyCre]

You’re welcome ☺️ that’s a great idea! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the craft!

[@evangelinaabella-rees8090]

I am going he same!! Thanks for the tip

[@schoolofhardknocks3957]

Beautiful.How long did this take?

[@kimak3488]

I used this tutorial to make my first basket! Thank you! I used t-shirt yarn and I love how it turned out. So neat to have the exact size and color basket I want for my side table. Binder clips helped make the beginning easier for me and to clip when I needed a break.

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Oh yayyy! I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial and love your basket! Thank you so much for your support 😊

[@emilielg8111]

Thank you so much, I appreciate it ☺️

[@debbie8430]

That very interesting. Seems like the two sizes of cord provide a different pattern. Thank you for sharing!

[@MaCREmebyCre]

You’re welcome and thanks for watching!

[@JenniferJohnson-Sahaba]

Approximately what length of cord with a little extra is used to create the basket?

[@vagabonddeesadventures8491]

Great video. I am doing a different type of coiled basket stitching by hand. But the look of your baskets entices me to try to make a few. Thanks for sharing.

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Thank you so much! I hope you do try one!

[@jayashreemurthy99]

Olá coloca um tradutor pf. Para sabermos a medida do fio da agulha.Obrigada ❤️

[@annamacambira5266]

oi querida ! tudo bom ?? eu traduzo pra voce. a corda do meio, a branca, e de 9mm, e a azul ela ta usando uma de 5mm. ela disse que voce tem q levar em consideracao que quanto mais grossa a corda que voce usa pra enrolar, mais rapido a sua cesta vai ficar pronta !

[@mariannamorozova2133]

how many meters of the macrame cord and the filler did you use for this project? i'm trying to buy cords in advance and want to know how many meters to buy :)

[@MaCREmebyCre]

A roll of each is enough for several smaller baskets

[@triciahurley1993]

How much of the piping cord do you use for this basket?

[@mardiclifford71]

It will depend on the weight of cord you use and how big you want your finished basket. If you work from the roll you don’t need to cut it until you finish.

[@MeMelanie89]

Wonderful Video. I Love this basket. Can I use twisted yarn? Or is braided yarn better?

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Thank you so much! You definitely can, but braided is much easier.

[@deannablankenship2347]

Can you make a square one?

[@leannejuers363]

Hi, what size needle are you using?

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Not really sure the exact size, sorry! I use the plastic ones because the holes are large enough for all my cord.

[@ishtar990]

I loved yoru video as it was what I was after to do at home. Now I have a substitute which is firm that I can use as a filler thats not a problem, I will be using 3mm braided as that is what I think will work for this, however I am not sure what lengths you are using or what kind of lengths I should be cutting?.......please help.

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Thank you! Well you actually don’t need to measure. You just keep cutting pieces and leave your filler cord on a roll. I cut handfuls at a time.

[@ishtar990]

@@MaCREmebyCre Thank you, I have been wanting to make baskets, my best ones are by crochet and I am really bad at that right now, so I really have been desperately hunting for macrame baskets which are easy to do and like these style ones. So thank you.....

[@MaCREmebyCre]

@@ishtar990 you’re welcome ☺️

[@ishtar990]

@@MaCREmebyCre question what size cotton piping did you use on your 3 mm basket? I am having great trouble trying to find cotton piping cord where I am, so I am trying to find a substitute.

[@MaCREmebyCre]

@@ishtar990 3/8 inch, but you can use a thick rope or bungee cord. Try a hardware store!

You are surely a jack of all trades. Great job. I have been looking at these baskets and think I will try one soon! Thank you.

Oh you’re so sweet! Thank you! I hope you do give it a try ♥️

[@judykloepfer136]

Have you ever used t-shirt yarn to make these baskets?

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Yes! I posted a shorter video with it and also reels on IG.

[@judykloepfer136]

@@MaCREmebyCre thanks for your quick response. I’ll check it out!

[@SueLeroux]

Could you not dye the cord first?

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Sure if you want to!

What size of needle are you using?

[@MaCREmebyCre]

Idk if you can click this, but maybe hold it down to copy and paste. They are just little plastic ones from amazon. amzn.to/3UqhsjU
