DIY Herringbone Round Basket

Can you ever go wrong with crochet baskets? They are fun and easy to make, beautiful and very functional. I have lots of crochet baskets because I’m addicted to making them. I have them in different colors and sizes. Well, today we’ll be making a DIY herringbone round basket. Here goes!

• Hooks: H (5.0mm) and G (4.25mm)
