The Beta Repurposed Container With Crochet combines reusing a detergent plastic container with an easy crochet add-on that gives a nice look and refreshed functionality. A piece that integrates both materials and textures, without being extra complicated to put together. Easy in the round and back and forth construction with basic stitch work, for a piece that can also be removed when needed. It fits the 9-10 L big containers, which are commonly used for home laundry.
