I’m getting more and more into the crochet gear these days, all curled up in bed with a cup of tea! Crochet is a really relaxing activity I find. My latest project are these square baskets which I’m going to use to organise my spices pots in the cupboard.
I’ve stiffened the basket with a cornstarch solution; it holds its shape better this way.
More on the way…
By the way, have a look at Zoom Yummy’s awesome crochet creations and crafty ideas!
Great idea about corn starch to stiffen. I’ve thought about making a tall-ish round cup to store my scissors and crochet hooks in, but didn’t think it would be sturdy enough. Corn starch is definitely the answer.
They definitely hold a lot better! Now you’re given me some ideas to make one for holding my crochet hooks too! 🙂
Any chance you can remember what that beautiful tea is (tealovlie)!!??? That color is gorgeous! Your blog is beautiful!!
