What you’ll need:

  • Yarn in a variety of colors

Instructions:

  1. Cut the yarn into strips that are about 18 inches long. You can use any color combination you like.
  2. Start by tying one end of the yarn to the top rim of the basket.
  3. Begin weaving the yarn horizontally around the basket, going over and under the vertical bars of the basket.
  4. When you reach the end of a piece of yarn, simply tie it to the end of another piece of yarn and continue weaving.
  5. Once you’ve covered the entire basket to your desired fullness, tie the end of the yarn to a bar of the basket and cut off any excess yarn.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of yarn colors and textures to create a unique look.
  • If you want a neater finish, you can use a tapestry needle to weave in the ends of the yarn.

Additional notes:

  • Kittenhood does not provide instructions for weaving the basket with a tapestry needle.
  • It is recommended that you search for additional resources online or in craft stores if you are unfamiliar with how to weave with a tapestry needle.
