Gift basket (customize with colors and size).

Materials

T-shirt yarn, approx. 1kg spool (Tapechu brand suggested, color choices: light green, blue, pink).
11mm crochet hook.
Stitch markers or a contrasting piece of yarn.
Scissors.
Large yarn needle (for finishing and hiding ends).

Step-by-Step Pattern

1. Start the Base

Make a Magic Ring.
Chain 1.
Work 8 single crochets into the ring.
(Keep stitches tight; this strengthens the base.)
Pull the ring closed firmly.

2. Work in Spiral

Mark the beginning of the round with a stitch marker or yarn.
For the second round:
- Work 2 single crochets in each stitch (total 16 stitches).
For following rounds:
- Round 3: 1 single crochet, increase around.
- Round 4: 2 single crochets, increase around.
- Round 5: 3 single crochets, increase around.
- Continue increasing until you reach your desired diameter (recommended: 18cm).

3. Build the Sides

On the first round of the sides, work only into the back loop of each stitch. This will help the basket stand upright and create a nice edge detail.

4. Color Changes

After two rounds with one color, change color as follows:
- Leave the last stitch incomplete, pick up new color and close the last stitch with it.
- Work first stitch after color change as a slip stitch for a neat transition, then continue as normal.
- Hide yarn tails as you crochet by trapping them into stitches.
Repeat with your colors: two rounds pink, two rounds blue, two rounds green, finish with pink.

5. Finish with Edge

For the final round, work slip stitches (very low stitches) in each stitch. This creates a neat edge.
After finishing, do not slip stitch to join; instead, weave in the yarn tail for a smooth finish using a yarn needle.

6. Weave in Ends

Use a yarn needle to hide all ends within the stitches of the basket.

Tip

For extra stability, always keep your stitches tight and choose a solid t-shirt yarn.
If you want the basket stiffer, use a slightly smaller hook or line the basket with felt or cardboard!
