Crochet stitches used
Air stitch: Take a cover and pull the yarn through the loop.
Chain stitch: insert needle into stitch, take cover and pull yarn through both loops
Chop stitch: Take yo, insert the needle into the stitch, get the yarn through the stitch. This way you will have 3 loops on the needle. Take yo and pull through the first two loops, take yo again and pull through the next two loops.
Crochet instructions for an Easter basket
For the Easter basket, first crochet a circular area of 4 rows and then 5 rows up.
To begin, form an initial loop from the yarn: double the end of the thread, form a "small pretzel", pass the crochet hook, pull the yarn through and tighten. Crochet 5 air stitches.Then go into the first air stitch with the needle and crochet a chain stitch, forming a circle.
1st round: crochet 2 air stitches to come to the height of the sticks. Important: these do not count as sticks! Now crochet 11 stitches into the circle and end the round with a sl stitch.
2nd round: Crochet 2 air stitches to come to the height of the sticks. Crochet a total of 22 sts in this round. To do this, crochet 2 stitches in one stitch. End the round with a chain stitch.
3rd round: Crochet 2 air stitches to come to the height of the bars. In this round you will crochet 33 sticks. To do this, crochet 2 stitches in one stitch and 1 stitch in the next stitch alternately. End the round with a chain stitch.
4th round: Crochet 2 air stitches to come to the height of the sticks. In this round you will crochet 44 sticks. To do this, crochet 2 stitches in one stitch and 2 single stitches in the next two stitches alternately. End the round with a chain stitch.
In the next round, crochet a sl stitch in each stitch. This row is so that later the basket will stand straight and we will have a visible demarcation between the bottom and the walls.
From this round on, crochet a crochet stitch in each stitch. Important: Make sure you insert your needle into the inside stitches of the double crochet and not into the outside chain stitches. Crochet the rounds of crochet sticks for 5 rows. End the rounds with a chain stitch.
For the handle crochet two air stitches to come to the height of the sticks. Now crochet 2 stitches, then 2 air stitches to come to the height, turn and crochet 2 stitches again. Repeat this process until you reach the desired henke length. Simply sew the end to the basket with a sewing needle.
Now you can decorate the baskets as you wish.
