About the pattern:
This bag is fantastic for storing firewood logs and transporting them from your log store to your cosy front room fire.

What you will need:
• Yarn = 2 spools of Nutscene Garden Twine, 3 ply, Natural jute, 300m
• Hooks = 5mm hook
• Stitch marker
• Tapestry needle to weave in the ends
• PVA glue to paint the inside of the basket to stiffen it
• Paintbrush and small bowl for the glue

Final measurements: 33 cm high, 32 cm diameter of base circle

Notes: This pattern is worked from the bottom of the bag upwards. You will start by crocheting the circle for the base of the bag, increasing the number of stitches for each round to keep the circle flat. You will then stop the increases, which will create the walls of the log bag. The walls are worked in a continuous circle so as to avoid a joining line being visible on the side of the bag. There are methods to avoid having a joining line if working in the round, however I find that no matter how hard I try I always end up with some kind of line and so this method is easier if you want your basket to look more professional.
