This pattern will show you how to make a lovely and useful book basket, perfect for organizing or toting kid’s books or magazines.

I made mine with 2 colors of t-shirt yarn (WATG Jersey Be Good) and an N/P (10 mm) crochet hook. Gauge will vary with different t-shirt yarns, so if you find you can’t make gauge match or if you just want a different size basket, you can easily adjust the number of stitches in the pattern. The pattern is pretty forgiving.

You’ll also need a large tapestry needle for sewing on the handles and weaving in ends.
