I LOVE the colors of your basket!!! I made a basket a while ago using 3 strands. It turned out so wonderful!!! I've been needing another basket so guess what? This is my next project!! Thank you!
Oh my goodness Anja...I never knew the trick of the corresponding row with the increase!!! After 20+ yrs of crocheting I learn something new every day! Thank you so much!!!
I made this in blue grey and cream and it looks great, it was very quick and now I have somewhere to store my on the go projects. I love the way you explain everything, excellent, thank you.
I too like color combo made by 2 grays and one in white stitches. I made cotton trivets using 3 strands held together. It mattered not what combo of colors used. Made for interesting colors and making thick enough to use as trivets. Of course, cotton yarn only so safely can be used with hot pots/pans.
Never gave a thought to making a bag till now I think it's a must can't wait till my grandchildren watch is over and I can get started ,. It will come in useful for the grandchildren to bring their toys over in ....Bring it on....Thank you for the idea sure I'll ge doing a few of these...xxxx
Fantastic video thank you Anja! You weren't wrong about the bird's nest idea!...After the bushfires damaged alot of bushland and natural habitats in parts of Australia last year , there was a huge call out to make nests and pouches for the surviving animals, esp the baby ones. Lovely and potentially life- giving stashbusters.💜✨xx
I love how you explain everything in so much detail, I just found your channel. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and explaining it where is easy to understand.
Thank you so much and welcome! Don't forget Betty Kaster I do a live video on Sundays at 20.30 GMT, be there for live interaction with me! Thank you for watching and keep crocheting! Anja xxx
I love how you did the colors in your basket. I have attempted two large stash buster baskets before seeing this video. They came out or but they are obviously made with leftover yarn. They aren't pretty at all. I will try again and use your rainbow basket as inspiration. Thank you!
Another great stash buster basket, Anja! I've got a few balls that I can use for this! Thank you. Hope you and Dirk are keeping well. May stop over this weekend for a tea and crochet! (at one or both of the LIVES) 😉
love it making a laundry basket for bedroom bathroom in teal and grey only using 2 strands as my yarn is thicker using a 5.5mm thank you for a wonderful video
Hi Anja, Love the basket. I think I will have to make the basket because I keep buying yarn😁. I just finish making your drawstring bag using Sugar n Cream yarn. I've made 2 and working on the 3rd one. I have 3 small granddaughters. Also I just got more yarn today for a shawl so I will need that basket. Thank for keeping us busy!!!.
Thanks for watching this video, maybe these would be of interest to you Penny Greenfield? ruclips.net/p/PL4OqcRdj5PUU6CL4mlG5x6eGgjyl8xLLl Enjoy watching Anja 🌈😘🌈
Love- just say what yur doing while yur doing it. Two single crochets in the next 2 stitches n then two single stitches into the next stitch n finish the row.
Have you tried putting all 3 strands in a large hole bead? It keeps the strands together. I've only heard this suggestion have not tried this theory out! Good luck. I love your ideas, Anja. Such a creative mind you have. Thank you for sharing and explaining it as you go! Vickie- in Mesa,AZ.
I really like this as it's a crochet basket to keep yarn or blankets in but the colours are really nice as they grey makes them pop it's worth buying a grey to use up stash colours 😀
The tutorial is for the basket, big or small it's just a different amount of stitches, I did a small sample one for the video so it wouldn't take too long! Anja x
Great basket. Bit confused about the stitches. After you stopped increasing did you stitch through the back loop only for just one row or for every row after that continue to use back loop only? Couldn’t see it on video. Thanks for the pattern and color suggestions.
I've gotten to the point where I'm no longer increasing. I wasn't sure if I had it down so I did a smaller sample and even when I'm counting the stitches and they turn out the same, the top of the basket is curving in and looks smaller up top. Will it look better on the big one or could I be doing something wrong? Edit: I didn't compliment the tutorial in the video. It inspired me to make a basket of my own, you made it seem so easy, thank you
@@OpheliaTalks you're right, it probably is tension. I'll try to chill out a little or go up a hook size if I keep having trouble. Thank you for responding so fast!
Love your basket , However , do you make any bags with cotton (100 percent ) I have been trying - however I would love your input as how to make a bag for fruit As I am running out of ideas Thank you
Thank you for watching Wendy Edwards ! Anja xxx 💕🌈 Have a look through my playlists on the channel, I have a few drawstring bags in cotton on there and a shopping basket.
The challenge of crocheting with three strands will be worth it if you have a beautiful basket in the end!! Good luck! 💐😘🌈
I LOVE the colors of your basket!!! I made a basket a while ago using 3 strands. It turned out so wonderful!!! I've been needing another basket so guess what? This is my next project!! Thank you!
How many rows do I go up on your basket 🧺
For the adhd peeps here, tutorial Starts at 7:40 ✨

Do you have a tutorial with the other basket? Its so beautiful 😍😍😍
The tutorial is for the basket, big or small it's just a different amount of stitches, I did a small sample one for the video so it wouldn't take too long! Anja x
Hi Anja, do you have a website for written instructions for this large basket? Thanks! Can't wait to make several with my leftover yarn!

That maybe a tension issue Mack....difficult to know without seeing it, sorry. Anja x
@@OpheliaTalks you're right, it probably is tension. I'll try to chill out a little or go up a hook size if I keep having trouble. Thank you for responding so fast!
What ply of wool do you use, I have aran, will that work?
How many skeins of the dark gray did you use for the large basket?
Hello Heather, it was a stash buster, l think it was 3 balls. Anja x
❤
Hmmmm, time to hit the left overs and the stash....thank you, hope you are well
Good luck! Hope you are keeping well too. Thank you for watching Judy Breymier ! Anja xxx 💕🌈
Would a bulky 5 or 6 work alone ?
The only way to tell is to try it, but l would think it should work ok, Anja x
What yarn was used for the bigger stash buster basket ?
As I say in the video, I used Stylecraft Special DK and an Ice Yarns saver that I had lying around with no project in mind. Anja x
Love your basket ,
However , do you make any bags with cotton (100 percent )
I have been trying - however I would love your input as how to make a bag for fruit
As I am running out of ideas
Thank you
Thank you for watching Wendy Edwards ! Anja xxx 💕🌈 Have a look through my playlists on the channel, I have a few drawstring bags in cotton on there and a shopping basket.
