It was my sisters birthday and she didn't want anything for the occasion, however, she's still my sister and I cannot let her birthday pass by unnoticed.
By coincidence I happen to know that she adores the scent of "le petit marseillais" (I do too as a matter of fact), so I decided to make her a gift basket with shower gels, a piece of soap, handcreme and bodylotion, as a finishing touch I added a sponge and a washpuff.
The basket I made of zpaghetti and a 10mm crochet hook. I also worked in continuous rounds.
The pattern is rather simple;
The only stiches used are single crochet ones (sc)
Round 1. 6sc in magic ring
Round 2. 2sc in each sc around (12sc)
Round 3. 2sc in each 2nd sc around (18sc)
Round 4. 2sc in each 3rd sc around (24 sc)
Round 5. 2sc in each 4th sc around (30 sc)
Round 6. 2sc in each 5th sc around (36 sc)
Round 7. 2sc in each 6th sc around (42 sc)
Round 8. 2sc in each 7th sc around (48 sc)
Round 9. 2sc in each 8th sc around (54 sc)
Round 10. 2sc in each 9th sc around (60 sc)
Round 11 to round 17. Sc in each sc around (60 sc)
Round 18. Sc, ch 5, skip 2 sc, sc in next sc, ch 5, skip 2, sc in next sc around, finish off and weave in ends.
You can use a contrasting colour in one of the rounds, or add a flower, plenty of possibilities and it takes about as much time to make as it does to leave the house and go looking for a suiting basket.
