A Christian twist on the classic crochet Easter Basket - meet the Cross Basket! This design features simple single crochet, an elegant crab stitch edging, and of course a cross applique on the front.
At around 5″ in diameter, I would classify this pattern as a mini Easter basket. I’d like to use it for decor around the house. However, I think you could also make it work with a handle if you wanted to use it for a little one collecting Easter eggs!
Crochet Easter Baskets Pattern
This crochet pattern is for a collection of Easter Baskets, all ready to be filled with little eggs!
The large ruffle basket is just the right size for small hands to hold which searching for hidden eggs at a treasure hunt. The medium sized flower basket holds just 3 little chocolate eggs and so is ideal to make as small gifts to give to a group of children, maybe at a party or at school. And of course we can't leave out the dollies! The teeny weeny basket holds just one mini chocolate egg, just big enough for Barbie to carry! So everyone is catered for!
Citrus Twist Tote
The Citrus Twist Tote brings a fresh squeeze to the ever popular crochet cotton market bag! The Citrus Twist Tote is made with 4 bright colors of Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie that made me think of… well, citrus! But of course, there are 30 gorgeous solids and prints of Scrubby Smoothie to choose from - who want to whip up a Berry Smoothie version? Or something Beachy in cool blues? The Citrus Twist Tote features a two-row repeat that's easy to memorize and works up fast. I have included all the row instructions (rather than a general repeat) so you can cross them off as you go - time for some of that “easy summer living”, or at least easy summer crocheting!
