Free Pattern: Universal Bowl Crochet Pattern

One of the best parts of being a maker is that when you need a container you can just make one!

I found myself cleaning up the guest bedroom, which held the remains of studio remodel and needed someplace to put little things here and there. I didn’t have any containers that were just the right size. So, I whipped these up real quick and am finding that they’re the perfect size for a number of uses.

The supplies you need for each small bowl include: a 9.00 mm crochet hook (US size M/N), approximately 40 yards of super bulky yarn (I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick), scissors and a tapestry needle for tucking ends.
