Free Crochet Pattern- Geometric Crochet Basket

February 25, 2019 by Shellie Wilson

So, if you’re anything like me, your space is overflowing with crochet yarn. It’s everywhere. Well, what better place to store your yarn than in a basket made of yarn?!

That’s exactly what the Geometric Crochet Basket is. You can store lots of stuff in this creative and durable basket. But my personal favorite is to put it next to my workstation, overflowing with my yarn haul. I also love that you can use this to tote around all your gear as well, perfect for coming and going to yoga class.

It’s got a stylish chevron pattern that will fit into any home’s decor, and it’s got handles for easy transport. Make a laundry bin for your granddaughter headed to college. Or make a stylish basket for neat storage in a small space. This basket will hold up to whatever you need it to be.

Why should you make your own shopping bags or totes?  Plastic bags are from the same source as all plastic: crude oil. So what is wrong with crude oil?

The manufacturing process emits considerable amounts of pollution, and the product is not biodegradable. On land, plastic bags are one of the most common types of litter worldwide.

As plastic bags are lightweight and float easily, this means they can travel long distances when picked up by the wind this includes landing in the ocean. Then wildlife gets tangled or ingests the bags, both in the sea and on land.

Make a difference and make your own shopping grocery bags.  Have plastic bags you need to re-use? Consider making these DIY upcycled plastic bag crafts.

Everly Crochet Baby Blanket Pattern Review – Rosette Motifs and Sweet Vintage Style

If you’re a sucker for anything with a little texture and a bit of old-school sweetness, the Everly crochet baby blanket is going to be right up your alley. This pattern is described as being inspired by a “field of blooming roses,” and honestly… that’s exactly the vibe. Those rosette motifs give it that pretty, dimensional look that instantly makes a blanket feel special, even before it’s finished.

What I like about a motif-based baby blanket like this is the built-in “wow factor.” You’re not just making rows and rows of the same stitch (which can be soothing… until you’re 900 stitches in and questioning your life choices). With the rosettes, you get that satisfying sense of progress — each motif feels like a little finished moment, and then suddenly you’ve got a blanket coming together.

The finished size is a really lovely, practical baby blanket size too: approximately 36” wide x 44” long. Big enough for pram naps, floor play, tummy time, and all those cozy cuddles — without turning into a never-ending, queen-size commitment.

This is also one of those patterns that makes a gorgeous gift. It’s sweet and nursery-friendly, but it doesn’t feel overly cutesy. It has that timeless, handmade look that people tend to keep — the kind of blanket that ends up being “the” blanket in family photos for years.

If you enjoy crochet that has texture, charm, and that slightly vintage-meets-whimsical feel, Everly is the kind of blanket pattern that’s genuinely fun to make and even nicer to gift.
