Welcome to the wonderful world of crochet! In this tutorial, I will guide you to create an amazing Ombre Basket Pattern. Whether you’re a beginner or a crochet expert, follow these instructions and you’ll soon have a unique Ombre Basket Pattern to call your own. Let’s start!
Step 1: Required Materials
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary materials:
Ombré crochet yarn in colors of your choice.
Crochet hook appropriate for the chosen yarn.
Scissors.
Tapestry needle to hide loose ends.
Step 2: Starting the Magic Circle
Make a slippery loop with the yarn and insert the crochet hook into the loop.
Make a chain to secure the bow.
Now, make 6 double crochets (sc) in the magic circle.
Step 3: Increasing the Base Diameter
On the second spool of the first single crochet (the last one you did), work 2 sc in the same stitch.
Repeat this pattern for all single crochets around the magic circle. You should end up with 12 single crochets.
Step 4: Continuing the Increase
In the next stitch, make 2 sc in the same stitch (increase).
In the next stitch, make 1 sc.
Repeat this sequence around the round: 1 sc, 2 sc in the same stitch. You should end up with 18 single crochets.
Step 5: Creating the Basket Body
We will now work in a spiral, without joining the careers. Work 1 sc in each single crochet from the previous round.
Continue working 1 sc in each stitch until the basket reaches the desired height.
Step 6: Color Change (Ombre Effect)
When you decide to change colors to create the ombré effect, finish the last stitch in the current color, but do not make the last loop.
Instead, take the new color and make the last loop with it.
Continue working in sc with the new color.
Step 7: Finalization
Continue crocheting in a spiral until the basket reaches the desired height, alternating colors as needed to create the ombré effect.
When you are happy with the size, cut the yarn, leaving a tail of about 15 cm.
Thread the tail through your tapestry needle and stitch around the edge of the basket for a finishing touch.
Hide any loose ends inside the basket.
Now you have a beautiful ombré crochet basket! Feel free to add straps, pompoms, or any other decorative details you desire. Have fun crocheting and creating amazing pieces!
