Crochet Basket for Fruits, Crochet Basket for Munj Rukhawat 2, Bhikshawal Basket

Hello friends,

This one is my second basket I made for Thread ceremony of my grandson. Here I avoide to use plastic basket but then it becomes very loose. Feeling by grain and pouring in the bag of boy, it looses it's shape and hence it doen't look good. But again if I knew the idea of getting starch by REVIVE then this problem can be avoided. Any way but the basket comes out to be very very beautiful.
