This is a very easy crochet pattern, pretty much a 

beginner pattern, but since we are crocheting with

 4 Strands of yarn held together, I kept it the skill level at Easy.

The Pattern is Stitched all in Single Crochet Stiches, stitching 

 continuous  rounds, so not joining with a Slip Stich.

This Gives the basket a smooth appearance.

Now, get in your yarn stash and find all those Medium (4) acrylic yarns. You know those "ugly' yarns, scratchy yarns, ones you don't know what todo with, and let's make a beautiful, useful, and Big O Basket.

Just Think Of all the Things you can store inside of it!

Yarn, toys, books, cloths, yarn, blankets, baby stuff, towels,

dog stuff, yarn, and so much more!

What I do To make it easier To Crochet with 4 Strands is to make Some "Crazy Yarn Balls". I roll up my scrap and left over yarn into balls with 4 strands. Then when I crochet I put the ball I am using in a container to keep it from rolling around.

Crocheting with 4 strands can be a little tricky, and this makes it much easier.
