These simple single-crochet baskets are useful in the kitchen, the bathroom, by the bedside, and on the sailboat (after all, they’re unbreakable!) One of our crocheters even used her small basket to hold her skein of yarn while she made the next one (clever girl). There’s no end to the uses you’ll find. And they make great gifts, too.
