My Best Bulky Basket Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

My Best Bulky Basket Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs


This Super Bulky Basket is  a nice big basket that
 can be used For bread, decorations or as a project basket.
It's a nice Sturdy basket because it was designed with
  Super Bulky Yarn.
I Found the Bernat Pop Bulky and knew I had to design
 a basket for my Spring Decorating and it will be lovely in any Season or Holiday  colors.
It even looks pretty filled with yarn.



If you do not have  Bulky (6) Yarn you can substitute
 3 strands of med (4) held together.
T- Shirt Yarn also works great.
It stitches up quick because you use a
 10.00 MM crochet hook.

A Few Questions
Since we have been making lots of washcloths and scrubbies,
 let talk about Cotton yarn Vs. Acrylic yarn.

It really comes down to preference.

Is There a difference between "Dishcloths and Washcloths?"

Nope, just decide which you want to use them for.

Rainbow Of Hope Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs


Rainbow Of Hope Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs



What is the Rainbow Of Hope?
 It began with Children drawing pictures of Rainbows and hanging them in their windows. When people went on their walks, they would see the Rainbows as a symbol of hope.
It has become a Fun hunt to find them, for the children.

The Rainbows continue to be a symbol of hope for all. 
They are popping up at Hospital windows, store windows, restaurant windows, coffee shops and many places of business, as a symbol that there is hope.

Several people reached out to me to make a Rainbow of Hope
 Crochet Pattern that they could hang on their doors or set in their windows. 
This is Hope
A Rainbow of Hope For You to crochet.

I Have also made a Free Coloring Page
For those who would like to color a
Rainbow of Hope.
Copy and  Paste and
 print as many as you like.
