Sturdy Garden Basket Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach Crochet

 Sturdy Garden Basket 

Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach Crochet

I designed the Sturdy Garden basket using the

 Hobby Lobby Scrub-ology Scrub it yarn.

 It is a perfect basket for gathering veggies and fruit,

as well as,  for rinsing off veggies 

and fruit after picking because this 

yarn is made to get wet and stay sturdy.

And It drys quickly.

The Basket will hold it's shape and stay sturdy.

The Scrub-ology yarns are quite bright, 

so it makes a lovely colorful basket, too. 

It even looks pretty sitting on the table filled

 with veggies, fruit, dinner rolls or a pretty

 flower arrangement.

I have a plastic strainer I use when washing the

 smaller veggies like beans and cherry tomatoes, 

as well as, the small fruits likes strawberries and blackberries.The strainer fits right in side

 the basket. It works great for for picking and washing. 

I take the strainer out when I am done.
