There are so many ways to use these bags & baskets! You can make cute rag baskets (ANY SIZE!), carry-all bags, tote bags, and pet beds (my cat loves his!). They are perfect for storing your arts and crafts, yarns, or really anything. There is a ridge on the bottom which helps keep their shape. Crocheting with fabric strips makes sturdy bags and strong baskets that will last!
Learn how to make fabric yarn, rip fabric strips in large amounts quickly, join strips invisibly and without sewing, and different basket edgings. This is such a great way to recycle and use up those remnants! Have fun embellishing with different novelty yarns, beads, or charms. So pretty!
For long-lasting bags and baskets, I highly recommend hand washing and put somewhere to air dry.
Crochet Hook Sizes:
Baskets=N (10 mm)
Bags=P (12 mm)
Different size hooks and the type of fabric will effect the outcome. I highly recommend crocheting a small swatch first!
