DIY Moses Basket | crochet tutorial

An updated step by step tutorial on how to crochet a Moses Basket. This tutorial includes instructions on how to make a basket with and without a hood. (This is an update to my very first YouTube video posted Oct 2021. It includes answers to many of the questions that were asked in the comments of that video and also incorporates some things that I neglected to include in the first video. I hope that this update is much more helpful for those of you who take on this project. Happy Crafting!)
