How to crochet house shaped basket (use to store things)

Who says storage has to be boring? Not me! If you're anything like me, you love finding ways to make everyday items a little more whimsical and that’s exactly what this project is all about. I am sooo excited to share my new crochet house basket pattern with you! This pattern transforms simple stitches into a charming, functional piece of home decor. Perfect for organizing small toys, craft supplies, or just adding a delightful touch to a nursery shelf. But when I say small, I mean really small like a darning needle, small scissors and a crochet hook. The house's size depends on your yarn and hook size too so if you want a big storage box, use a big hook size and a thick yarn!
