It is blazing hot in New England right now, so there will be no blanket making in my immediate future! Cotton is my favorite summertime fiber, and a yarn of which I have an exorbitant amount. Because sales. Lol.

The pattern that stuck right out at me was the “V-stitch Basket”, designed by Jackie Daugherty. I am always up for crocheting something to help me organize! My local yarn shop did not have the specified yarn, so I used some premier home cotton I had on hand – some denim-looking worsted weight yarn. Unfortunately even though I had more than enough yardage than the pattern called for, I ran out of yarn midway through the handles. SO, definitely pick up an extra ball of cotton if you want it all to be the same color. It looks really nice with the handles a different color though, don’t you think?

After finishing the first basket I started wondering what the basket might look like if it were made with thread. SO, I broke out my tiny 1.5mm crochet hook and size 10 thread and went to town. Isn’t it adorable?

Although it would make a great beach bag for a Barbie doll, I put this little cutie in my bathroom, and made a set of face scrubbies to fit perfectly inside! It will be nice to not have to use a whole cloth to clean my face at the end of the night!
