You are an excellent teacher. I would like more clarity how to increase rows in the beginning in order to create that pattern of lines.

Beautiful tutorial, thank you! A tip from someone else who was sewing a rope basket: if you tape the piping where you intend to cut it and cut in the middle of the scotch taped cord it will not fray :)

Loved this project. It's like a gateway project to a brand new way to work with and enjoy yarn. One can take this basket design in so many directions..

This was one of the most interesting, enjoyable videos I have seen yet! Your pace was perfect, and. instructions were very clear. No wasted time babbling! Thank you for that! I will be attempting this project in the near future, and I LOVED your knot! First time I have seen that, and will adopt your technique!

I really like this type basket. I like it even more that you can make it very large. This would make a nice laundry basket too.

I used this tutorial to make a medium sized shorter basket with handles. It looks great. I am a beginner and this was easy to follow. Thank you!

Friggin amazing. I do not have the patience. Watching caused anxiety. But I love it so much. I would totally buy one to hold my yarn 🧶 I love it.
