Crocheted Stash Basket. It doesn't take many years of knitting before one day you wake up to realize you have a lot of yarn.

Crocheted Stash Basket

So you embark on a striped project campaign hoping to pare down, but end up buying more and more yarn because you don't have exactly the right colors, and finally you face one of knitting's truths: stashes are unbustable. And where there's a stash, there's a storage problem. Instead of heading over to the dreaded Container Store, I decided that I would crochet my own storage unit. I imagined something with the feeling of a handmade basket; I wanted it to be nubbly, beachy and beautiful, and so, I turned to Hand Jive's Rustic Silk. One hundred percent Tussah Silk, handspun and handdyed, it is a really special yarn. I love my new basket for yarn, but now I'm wondering if I'll need another one for afternoons in the park, days at the beach, and weekends in the country.

I thought I’d make a tutorial on how to sew a lining in those fabulous Fat Bottom Bags :) Find the pattern for this bag here (PDF). What you need: a sewingmachinepair of scissorsfabricmatching threadpinsan ironpersonal label (optional) Before we begin, some things to keep in mind: If your bag is already finished, ie looking like the one in the above banner, you’re out of luck. This tutorial is based on the premise that the lining is sewn onto the square you create while making the bag, so before you crochet the sides together!

I am also working on a tutorial that shows you exactly how to crochet the sides together, since a lot of people are struggling with this part of the pattern. Oh and a little disclaimer: this is the way *I* sew my linings. Alright, let’s go! So this is what we’re starting with: our big granny square. Did you pick an awesome fabric for your lining! 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. But wait, poofy edges? 7.
