Fab pattern! Easy once you get the hang of the stitch but worth the effort because it gives the baskets a firmer structure. Made one for my bathroom to hold washcloths. Made another today for gloves in the hall. Now starting a third for scarves! I'm on a roll!! Thanks Mikey!
Thanks Mikey for the tip about not starting the split single crochet till round 10. The pattern is pretty straightforward, but I stupidly selected an O'Go that begins with the color black. But it got easier as I went along and I really like the look of it. Looking forward to seeing the finished basket. Love your tuturials!
@The Crochet Crowd TY for explaining the definition of a beginner vs easy project, Mikey🙋♀️...I'm a beginner, so I've only completed 2 projects. A dishcloth & headband/earwarmer. I'm going to think positive and follow the upcoming tutorial! TYSM for the time & energy that you put into your channel. We appreciate it. Take care
I would definitely do regular sc stitches for base and then switch to the split sc for the remainder of the basket. 👍 I absolutely love this! I was really on the fence with this O'Go yarn. This makes a functional item with just one and I love that! 😁👍👍😘
Cool! I’m sort of new to crochet and didn’t know about the “split single” stitch. I love the look of it! Thank you for this great, easy to follow tutorial!
I'm not new to crochet and just barely learned about the split single crochet stitch! I think I like it! I recently got another pattern that called for that stitch and found this pattern! Glad I did! Love the basket and love that it looks like knitting! Now I can make those awesome dish cloths with this stitch too!
Thank you so much Mickey, I really really enjoyed watching you create this Amazing and Stylish basket. It’s so very very useful too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
I have never tried the split single crochet. I'm very eager to try it though. You are right at first it's hard to see and when you would ask if we could see it at first I couldn't but then around row 3 I could see it. It's pretty cool. Thank you for sharing this with us .
I heard "split single crochet " and went 'Huh?' Then I saw how it was done and went 'Duh!'. Lol I love how this looks like knitting as I'm not very proficient at knitting but I can make a crochet hook fly! Tyfs!
Just how "easy" is it? I'm not very good at crocheting, but I'm pregnant after 12 years of trying to conceive, and multiple losses, including one quite late, so I've been wanting to make as much as I can by hand to make it all much more personal. These would be perfect for some nursery storage!
Depends on your ambition really. Beginner is the first stage of level, Easy is the next level up. This is a tough little stitch. It's still easy level but it's a bit tricky.
Woo hoo ! Can't wait to make these baskets for my daughter's new home !! While it's the weight l love I'm not sure how Ogo s priced so it'll have to wait until l find out but l have other yarns to use 🧶👍😃👍🧶
Thank you for a great tutorial!!! 🙏🙌 For a beginner, what size crochet hook would you recommend to make this with when using the Bernat Blanket O’Go yarn? I know that the pattern recommends using a 10mm (US N/15), would you recommend sticking with that or going up a size or two so that the stitches are easier to see? Thank you again.
O'go is being discontinued here in the USA. Michael's is the only place that carried it and they just did a closeout on it....they discontinued all lines.
They are not discontinued there's a bigger issue at play with this. What's happened is the supply chain has seriously stalled the program because some stores are yet to get their product when it should have been placed in August. So they are doing a massive clearance as there is more coming as it was sitting too long in cargo holds due to worker shortage.
@@TheCrochetCrowd ...I just got mine from Michaels and the store manager said they were no longer going to carry it as it wasn't a big seller. Hobby Lobby doesn't carry it and JoAnn's has their O'go supersaver marked down to $3.79 US. I haven't been in JoAnn's in a while, but I never saw it in there. Mikey...If you have ANY influence on Bernat with the Blanket yarn, can they do a retro colors line? Colors of the 1950's and 1960's. I'd love to see "Mamie Pink" and "Jackie O Blue" as well as a chartreuse and several other of the vintage colors. I love the blanket yarn and since it washes up so well and is super easy to work with, it's the only one I'll use.
This is such a great tutorial, so clear and easy to follow. I’m curious- is the split single crochet used purely for the look or is it stronger or somehow better for these baskets? Are there other places where I could use it in place of single crochet?

Thank you for this tutorial. Can I ask: what is the benefit (for this project) in doing the split single crochet as opposed to just regular single crochet?
@@TheCrochetCrowd thank you so much!!! I also read someplace that it looks a lot like knitting- which is why it’s unique. Can’t wait to give it a try!!!
Hi first.. you’re just a hoot…I really enjoy these videos. However, I have a problem with crochet in the round for baskets as every time I try it just becomes a flat very large circle instead of a basket lol. This is my nightmare come to life on screen. When you said , on Rnds 10-29, it was supposed to go from flat to bowl to basket and that it will take a few revolutions to start to fold in………how many? I have this fear it will turn into a very pretty rug for a dollhouse …lol. For you, how long until it started to turn? 28,29, 50? This is the only issue I have…help!! Ironically, because I also Tunisian crochet, split-crochet is very easy for me. These are adorable and I want to make a set for my nephews wedding. Thanks for all you do and making crochet fun.

Cute basket with a challenging stitch.
It really is!
Hi from Malta here I really love these videos thanx so much
My pleasure.
I just made one but only used the single crochet. It took about 7 1/2 hours
Turned out a lit better than I thought it would. I'll be making more.
O'go check, pattern check, hook check. I'm totally ready for this. 😁
Awesome.

Love these Mikey. As I live in a small home this projects invaluable for me. Thankyou for tutorial.
You're very welcome!
Mikey, I've been watching your videos for years, and I still love them! Thank you for explaining the OGO separation process for me!
My pleasure!
I think I would like to make several of these to match the different seasons/holidays
Great... you are all hooked up with ideas.
I might do that too! Great idea! 👍
I just love how you explain things .

I'm glad you told us how difficult it can be to split a stich with certain yarns. If you find it difficult, I KNOW I will. Thank you for your insight.
Not everything is said EASY when sometimes it's a bit tricky. It wouldn't be honest.
I would definitely do regular sc stitches for base and then switch to the split sc for the remainder of the basket. 👍 I absolutely love this! I was really on the fence with this O'Go yarn. This makes a functional item with just one and I love that! 😁👍👍😘

I can’t wait
Awesome.
I could REALLY use a BUNCH OF THESE!!
Great.

Thank you Mags. Enjoy the week ahead.
OMGoodness!!!! This looks amazing ❤❤❤
It's a useful idea.
Yarn storage! 😁 Can't wait for this one!
Me too!! It's a neat little hanging basket.

This is also called "waistcoat" stitch. There are several videos on it.
Thank you. I will look that up. I didn't know that.
I would wait a few rounds if this was me before starting so it's easier to see the stitches as it will be more bigger to really notice.
Mikey, you're so spot on with your zingers. 99, 100, 101....uh ..... is sooo me! lol
It gets dicy when it goes over 100 for me. :)
This is the cutest basket thank you for sharing your amazing
I love these & love the color selections, too! I can't wait.... Tomorrow!!
Hurry up and wait eh! haha
Fantastic!
Thank you! Cheers!
I had to drop a like for the amount of effort you put into this video! Glad you did it over with a different yarn so we have better visibility!
Thank you so much! It would have been pointless to demo with fluffy yarn. From your perspective you cannot see where to go.
You did a great job on this video! Fun project. Gonna hang one on my night stand for my remote. Keep the clutter down.
That's a great idea.
Love the basket I’m going to make one today thank you for sharing 🥰
Love it already
Awesome.
Thank you for sharing I love your teaching basket is beautiful
Wow great for gifts and multi use ,thank you mikey 😀
You're welcome.
Watched to learn the stitch. I don't use baskets of this type. Thanks Michael💕
You are so welcome!
Love this!!!! Can’t wait!!
Thank you for your enthusiasm.
I heard "split single crochet " and went 'Huh?' Then I saw how it was done and went 'Duh!'. Lol
I love how this looks like knitting as I'm not very proficient at knitting but I can make a crochet hook fly! Tyfs!
I thought the same when I heard of it. Getting it into my head was another story.
Love the zinger!!!!!!
My husband always talks while I’m doing my chain and counting. ALWAYS have to shush him and I STILL need to frog!!!!!!! UGHHHHH
MEN EH!
@@TheCrochetCrowd 🤣😂👍🏻👍🏻
Nice basket, never did a split stitch before, have to give this a try, need some baskets. Thank you for the tutorial
You’re welcome 😊
Fantastic, as always. Congrats.
I appreciate your support.

You are very inspirational and I love your tutorials xx
Thank you so much!
Thanks for the tutorial Mikey.
Any time!
Ready and waiting!
Super.
Fun thank you
So excited

Loved this tutorial. Thanks
You’re welcome.
You are so right about using Bernat blanket yarn…I can not see squat
Haha... your comment made me laugh in my office out loud this morning, haha
Great tutorial! Thanks!
Yessss!!!! I definitely need to jump on this
Excellent.
Love these basketa
Thanks.
Great tutorial! I appreciate your teaching method. Blessmas
You are so welcome
Ah Thank-you for explaining that split stitch, I was just not getting it
It's a tough stitch.
Woo hoo ! Can't wait to make these baskets for my daughter's new home !! While it's the weight l love I'm not sure how Ogo s priced so it'll have to wait until l find out but l have other yarns to use
🧶👍😃👍🧶
You can always substitute with something you prefer more.
Those are adorable need to pick up yarn before I get started. My stash is very low. Great tutorial by the way
A low yarn stash. GASP! haha
Great tutorial looking forward to making this
Good luck!
Oh oh. Lot bigger than I thought.
It uses the entire ball. So it's a great utilization to maximize the ball use.

It may be stronger actually. It holds more of a stitch.

Could you do 2 strands of yarn to make it bulky and do the same pattern?
Yes, just follow the gauge on the pattern.
Could you possibly please make another pattern that would work for a 5mm hook and a smaller size yarn?
Interesting stitch. Wonder who came up with it.
Great question.
I was wondering if you could make a crohoodie on your channel. I'm a visual learner so it would help a lot. I saw your pattern but its a little difficult to understand it when im just starting off.
I’ll consider it. It’s Nancy’s design. I have to find time in the schedule.
This is so easy and clever!!! Would you use the same handle method to make the basket into a hand bag or farmers market bag with longer straps?🙂
It is done but I prefer a handle I can attach. It may be a personal choice.
@@TheCrochetCrowd I can dig it.🙂 I really enjoy your channel. You're the best!🦋
@@TheCrochetCrowd I made a smaller version today to hold my garlic!!!😄
Thank you for this tutorial. Can I ask: what is the benefit (for this project) in doing the split single crochet as opposed to just regular single crochet?
I think it might be stronger as it's grabbing onto the stitch below it in more then just 1 spot.
@@TheCrochetCrowd thank you so much!!! I also read someplace that it looks a lot like knitting- which is why it’s unique. Can’t wait to give it a try!!!

I agree... It seemed like it took forever to do that turn eh! I was surprised. It may be my tension. So it may not be just you.
Would one skein of Bernat Blanket yarn would work? I have the Twist pattern one and it is the same 6 bulky texture.
Yes, just 1 would work. the 300 gram size format.
Mine looks like a feed bag. The bottom isn't flat.
It could be staging in the pic of not seeing the bulge at the bottom of the bag.
Do you have one of these types of designs but larger? I want to make myself a laundry basket.
I don't have a larger of this concept for a laundry basket. I'm sorry.
Isn't it called as Waistcoat stitch for the split SC?
It might be. Someone else said the same yesterday. I don't really know yet. I will ask Yarnspirations later this coming week.
How can I make it larger? Like for a small laundry hamper?
The increase that you have... just keep increasing in the same manner with adding an extra stitch each round until you how the size you want.
Is the yarn you are using still a bulky (6) ?
Yes I am.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😘🇲🇽🌟🌟🌟
Thanks.
Can’t see nothing 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
