T-shirt yarn is the most popular yarn for crocheting the baskets. However you can macrame cord or even four strands of a 100% cotton yarn (50gr/100m per ball).

Choose the size of the hook as recommended on the yarn label. If there are two sizes of hook, it is better to start with the smaller size for the first round (which goes around the holes of the base) and then to use the larger size in the following rounds.

I usually use a 5mm hook for the first round, and then change to the 6mm hook.

If you find that your crochet works out tightly, please try the next hook size up than the one on the label.
