This daisy tray keeps your yarn needles, stitch markers, and other small crochet supplies in place. The petal-shaped dividers help separate items and make it easy to find what you need. This crochet project can also be used as a lovely jewelry tray.

This is a no-sew pattern. Combining two crocheted layers for the bottom and the side gives the tray a sturdier feel.
