This crochet curved basket - with detachable leather handles - is ideal for keeping all of your skincare products together for easy access in your bathroom or in your family room to hold the tv remotes. They have been very popular with caravaners as they are not only decorative but purposeful whilst not taking up much space.
I've used 5mm braided cotton cord (made in Australia using reclaimed cotton) in a deep blue called Ink to crochet this basket. It measures 22cm across and is 8.5 cm tall - a great size. The handles are leather and are attached with chicago screws finished in an antique brass look, and yes you can detach the handles if you want to change it up a bit.
Your basket will come packaged using earth friendly materials to help ensure protection during transit and with a care card to help you look after it once you have it in your home. Your basket is washable (as per care card instructions), you will need to remove the handles first and it will need a little reshaping whilst it is drying.
My crochet baskets are a beautiful option for storing all manner of things in your home, caravan, workspace or treasured place, and they make a great gift. They're great as the beginnings of a gift hamper - just fill with a few other treasures for that special person.
Handmade is Key
I choose to use braided cotton cord, made using waste from the textile industry, for my crochet baskets and trays. I find it provides structure to my crochet and adds a modern aesthetic to the finished product.
Practicality and style all in one - modern crochet bringing handmade and resourcefulness together.
