Geometri Wall Baskets

Geometri Wall Baskets Crochet Pattern

What Is Being Made

The Geometri Wall Baskets are a pair of decorative crocheted wall hangers designed by Alyssa George. These geometric wall baskets come in two finished sizes: a large version measuring 6.5" × 6.5" (16.5cm × 16.5cm) and a small version measuring 5" × 5" (12.7cm × 12.7cm), not including the wooden hanging loop. These pieces are perfect for adding texture and visual interest to any room while serving as functional storage or decorative accents on your walls.

Project Overview

This is a beginner-friendly crochet project that can be completed in a single evening, making it an ideal quick gift or a wonderful way to use up leftover yarn from other projects. The pattern is straightforward enough for those new to crochet while still producing visually striking results through the use of geometric design and color blocking.

Techniques and Construction Method

The Geometri Wall Baskets are constructed using a corner-to-corner crochet technique, which creates the geometric pattern characteristic of this design. Each piece is worked in Moss Stitch, a textured stitch that adds visual depth and dimension to the finished baskets. After the individual pieces are crocheted, they are joined together using an accent color for detailing, creating contrast and enhancing the geometric aesthetic. To complete the project, a small wooden crafting ring is attached as a simple and effective hanging mechanism.

• Moss Stitch - The primary stitch used throughout the project, creating texture and visual interest in the wall baskets
