Bead Crochet Basket with Twine!

[CDBear]

This is a basket I made for a good friend.......he works with most of the ladies I made the purses for, but I didn't think he needed a purse.... He uses it as a candy dish on his desk at work!

 

Here is a close-up of one of the beads......

Great idea for a candy bowl. You did a great job.

Very nice Christi.

 

I made those at Christmas last year. Did you have trouble with the twine smelling like diesel fuel? All the twine I found stunk!

[CDBear]

No, Sheila, I didn't have that trouble at all......I found myself crocheting tighter and tighter, just to make it look right, tho. Kinda wore my arms and shoulders out!

Looks great! Glad you remembered the guy, too. I'm sure he felt appreciated.
