For: Ellie's Baby #2

Hook: K/6.5mm

Yarn:

• base = Red Heart in black + Herrschners Worsted in gray
• sides = Red Heart in white + Herrschners Worsted in smoke blue, lavender, and jade

Size: ~12 inches tall and 12 inches base diameter.

Notes:

• made this basket before, and it's basically identical in form.
  
• since this is 3 strands held together, I used the 3oz Herrschners Worsted skeins, and pulled from both ends, paired with the white, to make the sides.  
• For the first 2 colors, I just stopped when I ran out.  Had a little jade left after the top.
• I was going to use the same striped yarn in a different color for this one, BUT a porch pirate stole my yarn delivery in the 2 minutes between delivery and me walking to the door.
