FO's & WIP

This is my latest Finished Object. It's a larger basket from the same tutorial creator of the other three baskets I made. I added a few rows on top to clean it up. I have since shaped this a little so it doesn't slouch as much. I haven't found a purpose for it yet but I already know what I want to make next. On ravelry I spotted an image for a TP holder. It was just the image and not a written pattern, but I have since found another pattern for one, this one created by a YT I love to follow. The YT for this next WIP (not currently OTH) can be found below for those curious : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mz9b83ZILY&list=LL&index=2&t=190s Acronyms used FO is Finished Object WIP is Work in Progress OTH is On The Hook

I might do that at some point. I made this using mostly scrap yarn and I'll probably do the same for the handle.

@Tina30219 Absolutely. I have a ziploc bag full of scraps that were too small to save. Going to keep them and use it as stuffing. Do you crochet anymore?

That looks good. You can put your cosmetics inside. Thanks for giving me an idea of what I do with my remaining yarn from knitting.

Depending on how much is left, I will also save it in a bag to use as stuffing for later projects. I don't have cosmetics. I have one eyeshadow palette and that is all. I do not wear makeup.

@thelme55 Oh I use that but it sits on the nightstand at the end of my bed.

There was a pretty tissue box holder here when I moved in that my grandmother made. I didn’t use it long as I switched to handkerchiefs. I like the color of this basket you made. You make them so fast.

The pattern calls for 54 rows of single crochet then 18 rows of single crochet on each side to create a cross panel. I work at it a little at a time throughout the day. This one took me maybe eight hours. I think my mom used to make the tissue box holders and maybe a toilet paper cover too.

Yes it's large. I'm not sure the photo truly shows how expansive it is. My first thought was to put scrap yarn in it.

I used to buy something like this as a gift to my niece. It was fill with fake plushy veggie and the yarn was a bit thicker.
