The Whale Basket is crocheted using the modified single crochet stitch for tapestry crochet which creates straight vertical lines of stitches. You can learn how to do this modified stitch via the information shared on the Tutorials page.
PLEASE NOTE: The modified stitch is only used for the part of the basket that is following the graph. All other crochet stitches in the pattern are using the normal method.
All of the finishing details, yarn information, and written pattern instructions can be found in the PDF.

Hi Steph,
I love the basket. For the whale’s eye did you tie each one off? I’m assuming you do not carry the black throughout.
Thank you, Susie
Hi Susie! I carried the black all the way around but only on the rows that had eyes.
Thanks!
Thank you for the quick reply. I’ve started the basket. I hope I can master the modified stitch.
