Free Crochet Basket Pattern — The Mini

Just in time for Easter Baskets! This is a quick and easy Free Crochet Basket Pattern.

Who doesn’t love baskets?! They are great for gifts, organizing around the home and they really warm up a space. I started making baskets for my Etsy store about 6 years ago. I mostly sold the natural white color, but I’m really loving the pop of color these little baskets can add to a space.
