About this pattern

Every yarn person eventually needs somewhere to put the yarn, and this basket is a satisfying one-evening answer. You work it in the round with basic stitches and a doubled strand or chunky yarn, so the sides stand up on their own instead of flopping over. The free PDF includes the written US-term pattern, photos, and quick notes for making it taller or wider depending on what you're taming, whether that's yarn, bathroom bits, or small toys. It's a quick win that feels far more rewarding than the effort it took. Make one, and you'll be planning the next three.
