I love that little basket !!! Those are a wonderful idea for gifting cookies in a plastic bag of course inside of it! I can’t wait to make some for Christmas!
This is lovely. I am going to make a short basket to sit on top of my chest of drawers that doubles as a dressing table, to tidy up all the odds and ends like buttons, hairpins, etc. At the moment, I am using an ashtray to hold things, and I don’t even smoke! The lid makes a huge difference, so much neater than an open dish. Thank you.
We've got a mini tutorial on that here: th-cam.com/video/P87GpDPExsU/w-d-xo.html You can do it working flat on a surface as opposed to "in the air" like I usually do. It's a good way to practice and it works the same 😊
I've been searching for months for a Christmas gift project . I think I might of found one with your videos help. Like you said baskets help in many ways. But with a lid... fantastic!!!! And to style it for a certain holiday... my creativity began to imagine how for Christmas. Thank you so very much. This pattern will help greatly. 🧡😊👍

Thanks so much for this toot….sometimes I feel like we re are the same plane…..I love this basket and before I even watched the toot I was thinking how cute that acorn basket was….then thinking how I would love to make a rainbow of baskets for my craft room….you inspire me and I can’t begin to thank you enough ❤❤❤
I love this basket, I'm trying to do a bigger one ,I'm a beginner, hope you do a larger size one day. I can follow very well you're a great teacher. Thank you very much.
Hi Marion! Have you tried our Big Beautiful Basket by any chance? It's HUGE compared to this one 😁 You can find that here: th-cam.com/video/NzQmkNuruas/w-d-xo.html Thank you for watching 😊
I made the basket, just finished. I held 2 strands of worsted wt together with one strand of tinsely type sport wt to give me a bulky 6. I tried to see if there was a way to post pic I love this basket and the lid sets it apart! Thank you so much for this video!😁😁

This is such an awesome idea! I made a basket to hold my makeup and this would be a great addition to hold my mascaras, eye liners and lip colors along with my brushes and applicators!!!! Also a few to hold my body sprays and perfumes 🙂. Love it!!!!!!!!!
Been working , and miss so may lives latley, I thought this was an acorn , until i clicked on to watch it and you was holding it 😂 and mentioned acorn 😂, I love this basket , will be making at least 1😊, different colors make different many ideas. Love you tutorials and your simple teahing , I have much fun listening and crocheting along with your videos. Thank you , Jayda. ❤
I've found a great way to eliminate that bump at the bottom of the basket. When ready to move to the side, remove your hook, Come in from the back to front, grab your yarn & pull through. Now you can start your side from the back, no bump.
Hey Jayda! Love this pattern. Just a random thought for a video idea, it'd be super cool to see some inspiration for crocheting with recycled items like bottle caps or bottle components. I have a ton of playdough can caps that I would love to use in crochet somehow, but the only idea I have is 'hippie tree belt' lol
Jayda, do you have a tutorial for easy way to triple yarn? Also, for beginners or even people who learned to crochet 50+ years ago but always had problems with SC post crochets... I go up 1 hook size for the last row of increases on the base to make stitches slightly larger and noticeable then switch back to the original hook for the post stitch row. I can do all other post stitches, HDC, DC, TRC, even DTRC, etc .. maybe one day I'll be able to do the SC posts without "cheating"
@@JaydaInStitches thank you. I've seen other channels with it but don't want to redirect. Also, I didn't realize you replied before I edited and added my "woe" lol
Hi Mandi! It's 20% wool, so it might bother you, but it might not, I'm sure it will depend on your sensitivity. But you can also use Hometown or "I Wanna Make a Blankie" for this project too!
Could you do a tutorial for making hats for our cats and dogs? Well... it is almost Halloween then Christmas. I'd love to attempt a wee witchy hat then a wee elf hat. 😾😁
I've made this years ago out of plarn (plastic grocery bags) and it holds keys that don't go on my key ring. Of course I didn't have your tutorial and mine leans a bit. May make another.
Hi! If you just don't want it to fall off and go missing, you could chain a length of say 14, run the chains through a stitch on the edge of the lid and through a stitch on the very edge of the basket, then join the chains to make a ring. That will keep the 2 pieces from getting separated and should still allow you to close it.
thank you so very much to respond. My plan is to use basket w as a toiler paper roll cover, this will be used for tissues 😊😊any additional ideas on how to attach the lid when using a button so we can be opened oh, what else would you recommend?
As I worked on the lid this evening, I thought maybe I would not put the post, and then the two additional single crochets and the slipknot, I thought I would stop for the slip I would stop at the vote before the post, and do a row of slipknot and find a way to attach the lid so we can also open thoughts
This sort of looks like an acorn. My little one asked that i make valentine's (amigurumi) acorns for her class of 11 kids. She asked me months ago. Do you have any suggestions on what that would entail? I'm at a loss but don't want to disappoint her. Thank you!
Hi! We have an acorn pattern, that if you used really thick yarn and a big hook would size up to a small toy size. You can find that here: th-cam.com/video/FUGPa1qKAkA/w-d-xo.html
how would u make a basket to store yarn in size 400 grams with a top and oranizar for crochet hooks cause i crochet alot all iin one with a handle so u can take with u thanks frm collingwood ontario canada
Hi Nancy, larger baskets can be made but may not be as stiff as this one. You can make it taller by adding more rows. For a large basket with handles you can try our Big Beautiful Basket: th-cam.com/video/NzQmkNuruas/w-d-xo.html
Hi Robin, You can make it taller by adding more rows, you can make it larger by increasing by a few extra rows in the bottom. For a larger basket in general, check out our Big Beautiful Basket here: th-cam.com/video/NzQmkNuruas/w-d-xo.html
Yikes, love the basket but that yarn hates me. I can't use yarn that has machine washable wool. Would Hometown, Respun chunky or something similar work as a substitute?
Haven't even begun the video but I'm thinking yes and you could probably triple up #4 yarn which might be better for tp (unless you're going to felt it a little--- thinking about itchy wool pieces getting into the tp 😂) Excellent idea though!!!

Be a perfect bag a gift basket instead of gift bag. That way the person gets two gifts. Just put a Bow on top like a gift bag.
Love that idea!
Super idea Crystal!
I’m going to hang a couple little jingle bells on mine!

@@JaydaInStitches yes exactly ❤️
I've found a great way to eliminate that bump at the bottom of the basket. When ready to move to the side, remove your hook, Come in from the back to front, grab your yarn & pull through. Now you can start your side from the back, no bump.
Hi Pam, great tip! Thank you for watching 😊
You're very welcome. I love your channel.
Just started coming right with back an front post stitches
Hi Cindy-Anne! Just need the back post stitches for this project 😊
So cute!!
Thank you Mandi!🍁
Sweet! What could I put in it to complete the gift? Maybe small, scented pine cones?
Oooh! I like that idea!
Could I use 2 or 3 strands of yarn as a substitute for the super bulky? I can't wait to make this . 😍
Of size 4 weight, Absolutely!
I love it❤
Thank you Kimberly 💗

Hi Brooklyn, Thank you for the suggestion! 😊
❤hard to follow with dark yarn can you do this again in light bright color
Hi Eleanor! It's very similar to our other round basket constructions, but you might find it easier to see if you up the brightness on your screen 😊
Thinking about a bit of fluff(stuffing) in nub of acorn🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That would make it easier to grab...and very cute!

I'm allergic to wool but was gifted some of this yarn last year. Have in my yarn stash and I'll see if i can handle it without it bothering me to much
Hi Mandi! It's 20% wool, so it might bother you, but it might not, I'm sure it will depend on your sensitivity. But you can also use Hometown or "I Wanna Make a Blankie" for this project too!
I made a heating pad cover for my sister in 100% wool, if I can power through that I can do anything.
I noticed in the states the Christmas tins are out a baggie inside this basket and you can keep your cookies I have to make it
Lovely idea!
Could you do a tutorial for making hats for our cats and dogs? Well... it is almost Halloween then Christmas. I'd love to attempt a wee witchy hat then a wee elf hat. 😾😁

HI Tami, yes, many super bulky weight yarns would be fine, including Lion Brand Hometown and "I wanna make a blankie".

Would this work with 100% Acrylic yarn, as long as it's a #6 super bulky?? I'm sensitive to the natural fibers. 🤔
Yes, absolutely!

I approve! 😍 (Laughing at my reaction)
😁 Anything to help myself tidy up around here!
I would love to make this but in New Zealand each ball is $20!
Hi Vicki! You can use size 6 bulky weight yarns or 2 strands of size 4 held together 😊
@@JaydaInStitches oh thank you! That would be awesome 🤩
How do I make this basket larger if I wanted to?
I'd like to know this too please!

@@JaydaInStitches Thanks so much Jayda. I'll check it out. ☺️
Hi can I use tshirt yarn
Hi Lucille, yes!
Thanks alot for replying God BLESS
Yikes, love the basket but that yarn hates me. I can't use yarn that has machine washable wool. Would Hometown, Respun chunky or something similar work as a substitute?
Hi! Yes, size 6 bulky weight is the yarn size, and tight stitching keeps it stiff - so any size 6 would do nicely 😊
Would be an Acron Basket if you kept the top dark brown and the bottom beige
Yes, I was thinking Oatmeal on the bottom and that Spiced Apple colour on top!
@@JaydaInStitches yes!! I wanna impulse make one right this second now 😂
Will it fit a roll of toilet paper!
Haven't even begun the video but I'm thinking yes and you could probably triple up #4 yarn which might be better for tp (unless you're going to felt it a little--- thinking about itchy wool pieces getting into the tp 😂)
Excellent idea though!!!
Hi Sheena! YES! It would! It's about 6 x 6 (15 x 15 cm) and that's a fairly normal sized roll of TP 😁
Can do it 4pl yarn
Hi Kathy, if you don't have super bulky yarn, then 3 strands of medium weight yarn held together will work too.
LOOKS LIKE AN ACORN
It sure does!
The yarn colour is too dark very difficult to see the stiches use always light colours for tutorials
