Add some chunky crochet accessories to your home this summer by learning how to crochet your own colorful storage baskets and plant pot covers. Be inspired by this crochet demonstration as Emma runs through the stitches and techniques you will need to create different crochet basket options. Over the hour, Emma will talk about different yarn options for your baskets, how to create baskets in a variety of sizes, and show you how to finish your baskets with a neat faux braid rim as well as how to add a hanging loop. At the end of the demonstration, you'll leave all the knowledge needed to create gorgeous cotton baskets on your own.

Whether you're new to crochet or a whiz with the hook, you can master this simple and functional, multi-purpose crochet basket! You'll have the chance to ask questions and follow along with Emma from Stitching Me Softly as she walks you through the process of creating these practical and beautiful baskets. Once you've learned the steps, you'll be making these baskets for everything - can you whip one up in 20 minutes like Emma can? We bet! See you there!

Supplies (if you'd like to follow along!):

• Cotton cord/yarn and crochet hook to match their yarn weight. Emma will be using 5mm Bobbiny Cord and a 10mm Crochet hook, both are available on her website and I sell 2 varieties of crochet basket kit which you can find here. Both contain all the cotton cord needed, a crochet hook, stitch marker, and printed instructions as well as a printed how to crochet guide for complete beginners.
