Materials
Medium or chunky-weight yarn
Crochet hook suitable for the yarn
Scissors
Yarn needle
Foundation
Chain the desired number of stitches.
Work a row of single crochet across the foundation chain.
Chain 1 and turn.
Pattern
Row 1: Work single crochet across the entire row.
Row 2: Chain 1 and turn. Work single crochet across.
Row 3: Begin the textured pattern by working raised stitches around the stitches from the previous rows, creating alternating vertical and horizontal sections.
Repeat the textured stitch sequence across the row, keeping the tension even.
Row 4: Continue the raised stitch pattern, crossing or overlapping the long stitches to create the woven basketweave effect.
Repeat Rows 3–4 until the piece reaches the desired length.
Border
Work 1–2 rounds of single crochet around all four sides.
Place extra stitches neatly at the corners to keep the edges flat.
Fasten off and weave in all loose ends.
Finishing
Gently stretch and shape the piece so the basketweave texture is clearly defined.
The finished stitch creates a thick, dimensional woven texture, making it suitable for blankets, scarves, bags, cushions, baskets, and home décor.
