I saw this little basket on Knot Garden site a couple of weeks ago and felt very inspired to make one of my own. I'm new at crocheting and I found this easy to make, the hardest part was using the fabric stiffener. I found it difficult to shape the basket. With all the fun pictures of pincushion around blogland, I was inspired to make this 5" basket (including the handle) into a pincushion. Do you see the chocolate egg inside? I found this Stuffed Eggies pattern here.Happy Easter to everyone and I hope the easter bunny remembers to bring you chocolate.

Wendy, that's adorable - I'm amazed at how quickly you've picked up on crocheting! You are a true talent, my friend.
That is so cute Ms Wendy and I fell in love with the one on Knot Garden as well and wanted to make one, but you actually got it done.
Have a wonderful Easter :)

My goodness, Wendy you have so many wonderful talents. I love the little basket and it will be much more useful as a pin cushion.

Happy Easter Wendy! Though I love chocolate, I hope the Easter Bunny will bring me fabrics...
This so cute.
I love the little crochet basket and the idea to make it into a pincushion is pure genius! Hope you have a Happy Easter.
I love those colours, makes me think of chocolate and lime or chocolate and mint ... the shaping looks perfect to me. It's just right for Easter!
Lovely, darling basket for the holiday. Happy Easter!
