Step 1

Start with a magic ring. Work 10 single crochet stitches into the magic ring. Join with a slip stitch, and pull tight.

Step 2

BASE - Chain 1, 2 single crochet into each stitch, join with a slip stitch. (20 stitches.) Chain 1, *Single crochet into the next stitch, 2 single crochets into the following stitch. Repeat from * all the way around, join with a slip stitch. (30 stitches.) Chain1, * single crochet into each of the next 2 stitches. Then work 2 single crochet into the next stitch. Repeat from* all the way around. Continue increasing in this way until you have a flat base the size you want for the bottom of your basket.

Step 3

Once you have made the base the required size, slip stitch into the back loops only of your last round. Than work another round of single crochet, inserting your hook into the same spaces as you did in the last round.

Step 4

SIDES - Keep crocheting in rounds, without any increases at all. crochet until the sides are the height you require.

Step 5

HANDLES - Mark the center stitches on both the front and the back of your sides, measuring in from the sides. Now count out 3 - 5 stitches from that central stitch, going both ways. Work in single crochet up to the first marker, chain 7-9 stitches, than single crochet into the stitch with the second marker. Continue around the basket, and do the same on the other side. Slip stitch to close. On the next round, when you get to the chain loop you have made, single crochet the same number of stitches as you did chain stitches, over the chain, into the space you have made with the chain loop.

Step 6

Continue by working 2 more rounds, thus creating nice thick handles.To finish, slip stitch to close the round, pull the yarn through, and weave the ends in.
