If you like to crochet loosely – then this bead felted
Jack O’Lantern Basket pattern is for you. It’s tapestry crocheted with Plymouth Galway worsted wool and a size K hook. Size 5 silver-lined gold beads add sparkle.
Both of the below baskets were crocheted following the same instructions, but the basket on the right was felted in a washing machine. Loose stitches, feltable yarn, washable beads (the color washes off some beads), a HOT soapy wash and cold rinse are the keys to successful bead felting.
The Jack O’Lanterns are visible on the inside and outside! This online pattern is being sold by Ravelry for left handed crocheters and right handed crocheters – just in time for Halloween!
