How to crochet a mini basket
So this is a follow to the laundry basket I have already done, my mother asked me to make a small one for her after she saw the laundry basket I made ( my mother doesn't like to see me crocheting, she thinks it's a waste of time, but it doesn't stop me from continuing), so i made this small one for her and joined the written pattern here for you to enjoy and to do the same.
This mini basket is aesthetically pretty and useful for many things, you can make different sizes, smaller or bigger.
Crochet Hook Size: 3.5 MM

Place a stitch marker as a reference to where you are starting the spiral .
ROW 7-15: working in spiral, half double crochet in every stitch.
From the stitch marker point, ch 10, join on the 11th st ( count 11 from where you started to chain), continue half double crochet for 29 stitches,
Again ch10, join to the 11th st, half double crochet around and 10 hdc in each strap.
Do one more row of half double crochet around.
Last row, slip stitch around, fasten off.
Love your basket. I have to make one to pop some knitted dishcloths in, so this is ideal. Crafting is never a waste of time in my humble opinion..good for your soul and mental health. Keep up the good work.
