What you need to know

Add colour to the nursery or home with Susie Johns' easy crochet pattern.

These fun little baskets are a great introduction to working crochet in the round and will use up all those yarn leftovers - a single ball is enough to make two of the larger sizes, or one large and two small. Whether you fill them with pens on your desk or pile them with treats and toys for the kids, these quirky tubs will certainly liven up your surroundings.

Top crochet tips

Add your own personal touch by working with a range of colours to create stripes or adding your choice of embellishments. As these projects are quite small they are perfect for using up all those crafty bits that you have lying around, from sequins and buttons, to beads and fabric motifs.
