Rope basket

The instructions are unclear, can’t figure it out.
Waste of money.

Hi Kim,
We’re so sorry to hear you were disappointed with your Chelsea Rope Basket and found the instructions unclear. We definitely do not want anyone to feel that way. By chance, were you able to watch the video tutorial included with the kit? Many customers find video very helpful as it guides you through the process step-by-step. We are always here to answer questions about any of our kits if you ever need help, please feel free to reach out to us and we will help you in any way we can. If you’d prefer to exchange your Chelsea Rope Basket for a different kit, we’d be glad to suggest some other basket kits that might be a better fit for you. Warmly, Flax & Twine

Cute basket

I gave this four stars because it only had enough rope to make 9 of the 11 rows called for in the pattern. It really didn’t make a difference other than it not being as tall as it should. I was surprised because I felt that my stitches were tight and I am usually a tight crocheted. Not accustomed to working with a rope so some difficulty getting the hook and rope through the stitches. All in all it looks cute and will serve the intended purpose on my kitchen counter.

Hi Susan,
We are very sorry to hear your bundle of rope was not enough to finish the basket with 11 rows as the pattern called for! Your bundle of rope must have been a short bundle and we apologize for that. We are happy to send you another bundle of the rope if you would you like.
Warmly,
Flax & Twine

Chelsea Basket Kit

I actually messaged you about the difficulty of this kit. I was told it was a kit for experienced crocheters. I have crocheted for years and have made baskets. This rope will not bend to even do the four chainstitches much less to join them and crochet in the circle. I am very disappointed. I love your items but probably won't buy again.

Hi Mary Ann,
We are sorry to hear the rope for the Chelsea was difficult to use and are happy to exchange your kit for something else if you would like. The Brenn rope is used in the Chelsea Basket to help maintain it's shape and can definitely be stiff to work with. Please let us know if you would like to exchange your kit and if there is anything else we can do.
Warmly,
Flax & Twine
