A Fab Basket with Fab! Yarn
Designed specifically to show off Bernat Fab! yarn, this basket takes this unique yarn "meta!" This unique yarn is a plush core wrapped in a floral printed fabric exterior that creates great stitch definition and a sweet look. The result is a springy, Easter-y basket that feels soft and squeezable, but is more than sturdy enough to stand up on its own.
Inspired by the Simple Flower Egg Cozy, the Fab Flower Basket features a scalloped base and a tulip-style top for a playful, modern take on crochet home décor. The structure is built right into the stitches, so there’s no need for extra stiffeners or inserts, making this a satisfying project from start to finish. Whether you’re organizing small essentials, dressing up a shelf, or gifting something handmade and useful, this crochet basket pattern is designed to hold its shape and look great in any space.
If you’ve been curious about crocheting with Bernat Fab! yarn, this pattern is a perfect place to start. It works up quickly, highlights the yarn’s strengths beautifully, and creates a finished piece that’s both decorative and practical. Grab your hook, choose your favorite Fab colorway, and let’s make a flower that helps around the house!
