Crochet Alongs are super fun. But Quick LIVE Crochet Alongs are more interesting, and exciting and allow you to take your time finishing one large project without overwhelm and YOU get LIVE Tutorials and LIVE Support with a Community at the same time.

What will you need for the Heart Basket with Flower Pattern LIVE Crochet Along?

Click the links below to see which materials I used exactly!

Lion Brand’s Hue and Me Yarn (80% Acrylic, 20% Wool, Bulky, 137 yds/125g):
- Love Song (1 full skein) – for Heart Basket
- Ozone (1 full skein) – for Heart Basket
- Desert (1.3 skeins) – for Flower Divider

I recommend any of the 3 solid colors. But you can also use a solid with a multi-colored variegated yarn.

Can I use a different yarn?

Yes, you can switch to a different yarn brand, even a different fiber if you prefer.

I recommend this yarn: Lion Brand Hue and Me Yarn but you can also use another bulky yarn.

You can find all of Lion Brand’s Bulky yarn selections here.

But it’s an ideal project as a yarn stash buster. Use leftover yarn if you have any. I would recommend sticking with either of my above recommendations.

What colors should I pick?

I recommend any of the 3 solid colors. But you can also use a solid with a multi-colored variegated yarn.

Either stick with the colors I picked or pick your favorite colors. Remember you will need 1 skein for each color.

You can also pick 3 different colors if you like:

If you pick 3 different colors, you may pick some of these options:

seasonal – I picked 3 colors that worked great together
1 bold color and 1-2 neutral
colors of the same tone (example: light vs dark green)
colors opposite on the color wheel (aka complimentary colors), examples:
- orange and blue, etc
- yellow and violet, etc

Get the Color Wheel HERE
