A crocheted jute basket can be made using gardening twine. Jute is stiffer than yarn so is suitable for basket-making. Crocheted baskets can be made in an hour or two.
This jute basket is crocheted from colored jute twine and can be made in an afternoon. Making a basket from jute twine requires knowledge of three common crochet stitches: the chain stitch, single crochet stitch, and then slip stitch. Even beginning crocheters can undertake this easy project.
Materials for Crocheted Jute Basket
Materials to make this basket: 2 skeins of green or beige jute twine and size 3-5 crochet hooks. The hook size is adjusted according to a thickness of the twine.
2-3 skeins of jute garden twine, 140’/ 43m, 3-ply
Number 4 hook
How to Crochet a Round Jute Basket
This basket is started with a beginning loop. Loop allows for the first row of stitches. After the first row is completed, the tail is pulled to tighten the center ring.
Basket bottom
Row 1: Beginning loop: cast stitch on hook and CH 1, 8 SC in loop, SS to join
Row 2: 2 SC in each stitch (16 stitches), SS to join
Row 3: 2 SC in each stitch (32 stitches), SS to join
Row 4: 1 SC in each stitch, SS to join
Row 5: 1 SC in each stitch, SS to join
Row 6: 2 SC in each stitch, SS to join
Row 7-10: 1 SC, SS to join
Row 11: SC in front of each stitch; SS to join, CH 1, turn. This row forms the outside edge for the bottom of the basket, additional rows form the sides.
Basket side
Rows 12-17: SC in each stitch, SS and fasten off. This uses up second roll of jute twine. Roll basket edge outward.
(For a larger basket, the third skein of twine can be used. The edge should be rolled for a stiffer basket.)
Crocheted Jute Basket Pattern Notes
Select hook size depending on the thickness of the jute.
Pull a strand of twine through the first stitch to mark where each row begins. Because of the fuzzy look of jute, it may be hard to determine the actual first stitch.
Crochet in the first stitch for each round (some patterns call for a CH 1 before proceeding with each row but this leaves a visible loop in the joining span).
When attaching the new skein, the new strands should be woven in at the joining area. Raffia can vary in color and joining it at the seam will help the new color to blend better. Carry the extra two strands from the first and second skein at the back of the work and make sure to crochet in, as the row is worked.
A larger basket can be made using 3-4 skeins of jute twine. The edge should be folded to add stiffness.
Crocheted jute baskets make functional and attractive decor items for the home.
