Recycle T-shirt Crochet Basket
"The Recycle T-shirt crochet basket free crochet pattern and photo tutorial is designed to help you upcycle old materials into something new and useful. Earth day is quickly approaching us and I wanted to provide everyone a way to throw away and buy a little less. Lots of different materials can be used for these crochet baskets. The baskets are very quick and easy to make up. The T-shirt yarn makes a floppier basket, while a rope makes a sturdier basket. "

Yarn Weight(4) Medium Weight/Worsted Weight and Aran (16-20 stitches to 4 inches)
