The more I got into crocheting, the more I discovered possibilities for its application, and I still do… Garments from head to toes for all ages, accesories, dolls, and home decoration, among many others. And crocheting for home is so interesting and useful, one can imagine infinite pieces for the kitchen, living and dining room, bathroom, bedroom, etc.
Mientras más me adentraba en el mundo del tejido descubría mayores posibilidades para su aplicación y lo sigo haciendo… Porque se pueden hacer prendas para vestir desde los pies hasta la cabeza en todas las edades, accesorios, muñecos y tejido para el hogar entre muchas otras cosas. Y es en esta última área donde podemos crear un sinfín de piezas para cada cuarto que compone una casa: cocina, comedor, sala, recámaras, baños, etc.
In this particular case I had the need for organizing my wardrobe, to give it a bigger capacity, structure, but above all a better look. I thought of making a kind of box or basket with tapestry crochet technique, this would give enough support and flexibility for the available space and contents. I’m so happy with the result, and once I have all my crocheted baskets my shelves will look great. If you also need a storage solution for any room go on and download the free pattern to do it yourself.

En mi caso surgió la necesidad de organizar más las repisas de mi closet para darles mayor capacidad, orden y lo más importante mejor vista. Pensé en tejer unas cajas tipo canasta con la técnica de tapestry crochet, esto les daría la suficiente rigidez para sostenerse pero también la flexibilidad para adaptarse al espacio y a su contenido. Quedé feliz con el resultado y cuando tenga todas mis cajas tejidas mi closet lucirá estupendo. Si también necesitas mayor estructura en tu guardarropa o algún otro espacio de tu hogar anímate y descarga el archivo con las instrucciones para tejerla tú mismo.

Thank you !
LOVE this 😉
I’m so glad you liked it Beth, thanks 🙂
Ooh, I feel a need for lots and lots of these!
I really like this organizing ideas. The basket is a nice color too. I think I may try to make. A couple for myself. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for writing Kathy, it’s my pleasure sharing with you. I hope you can make your baskets, they are very useful and look great! 🙂
What a great idea. Love the basket.
Thanks so much for your comment Susan, I’m happy you like it 🙂
I am looking for a basket pattern that will be enough for a full to queen size Afghan have any ideas
Hi Chima, thanks so much for writing. It would depend on how chunky the Afghan is but I think at least a 50% bigger basket than this one, also 50% taller. You could fold and measure it to be sure of how much space it would need. Have a lovely day 🙂
Is this basket large enough to hold a toy dog? Approximately 10 pounds.
Hi Cheryl, I think it would, you can find the new version for this tutorial here https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=Dchu-RrmyKk and you will have a better idea for scale too. Thanks and have a lovely day 🙂
