      This is awesome! I have a niece that would love this! I already have "candy corn" colored yarn and will make it to send to her as a surprise.
      Thank you for all of the free patterns you offer!

      Should I stiffen the basket for hanging outside on my deck? What would be the best to use other than sugar water?

        I didn't stiffen mine at all, but I would recommend spray starch from the laundry aisle!

          I was concerned that the wind would blow them and it would all fall out. I’ll figure it out. Thank you for your quick response.
