It is that time of the year again when we get to celebrate love by gifting of any kind.
In the spirit of love and DIY contest, I decided to make a Christmas snowman candy basket.
Material used:
Yarns
Crochet needle
Scissors
Cotton wool
Steps involved: every step in bed in this project is like a repetition of the same pattern.
For the Basket: I started by making a magic ring then I made a chain of one and seven single crochet inside the magic ring and ended with a slip stitch. I went further into making two single crochet inside the stitches and ended with a slip stitch for row two.
For the next row to my desired length, I made two single crochet in the next two stitches and two single crochet inside the next stitch; I increased the number of single crochet as I proceeded further by one. After a few rows, I was done with my basket.
For the Arm: I made a magic ring and continued by making a chain of one and four single crochet, then I made a slip stitch to end that row. For the next row, I made a chain of one and two single crochet inside each stitch and ended with a slip stitch. For the next rows, I continued with a single crochet till it got to my desired length, and I ended by making a reduced crochet.
For the head: I started by making a magic ring and a chain of one and six single crochet then I continued by making two single crochet inside each stitch and ended by making a slip stitch. I repeated the same process as the basket and ended with a reduced crochet to join the opening. And I used black yarn to create the eyes.
For the Hat: I started by making a chain of fourteen then I went further into making a single crochet in each of the stitches after skipping the first one. Then I turned my work and continued making a single crochet till it got to my desired length. Then I joined the edges using a yarn and my crochet needle. Then I wrapped my yarn around my fingers till I got seventy of it, then cut it out with scissors, trimmed it it to the length I wanted, and joined it to the hat.
For the Nose: I started with a magic ring and one chain and a single crochet of six, then I ended with a slip stitch. I continued by making two single crochet in each of the stitches and ended with slip stitches. I went further into making a single crochet inside each of the stitches till I was done with it.
So I joined everything I've made so far so enable me get my snowman basket.
After the joining was done, I got this result.
Then I decided to make it look fancy by putting some candies in the basket since its called candy basket.
