The swirling layers, shape, and depth of this project basket
remind me of the Glacial Potholes here in Shelburne Falls. The Glacial Project
Basket from Valley Yarns is crocheted using three strands of Valley Yarns
Berkshire Bulky held together, which means this project comes together fast. The
color changing ombre effect keeps your attention and becomes a subtle flow of
tones once felted. Valley Yarns Berkshire Bulky is a superbly soft wool and
alpaca blend made of a single ply. The
pattern is in written form only.
