I must admit that my favorite projects are the practical ones. There’s a great deal of satisfaction in regularly using something you made yourself that really solves a problem or serves a purpose. But there’s no reason practical can’t also be pretty! If you, too, need more storage to fill with goodies, keys, and small treasures, or want to make beautiful catch-all areas for your stuff just like myself, these crochet bowl patterns can come in handy.
Crocheted bowls have a myriad of uses around the home, especially since you can vary the size of them by choosing different weight yarns. Of course, you can make them in any colors you like to match your decor. This collection of crochet bowl patterns offers a variety of uses, stitches, techniques, and styles to make bowl-making fun!
