Crochet inspirations: clutches and storage baskets

Over the years, I have taken pictures of crocheted items I have found at stores for inspiration and to see if I can replicate it for my personal enjoyment. There are many of free a paid crochet patterns that look similar to the items I wanted to make, so this post is for those items.

Recently, I found this simple crocheted clutch that was apparently made of 100% paper. It looked more like raffia.

Here is a similar clutch that you can make from Yarnspirations: Crochet Clutch free pattern. I was also thinking to try making this with raffia.

I have seen the hanging baskets at Ikea, and I've been meaning to make myself a few of those. 

Here's a similar hanging storage free crochet patterns. First one is from Hooks and Habits. I would make myself a longer version for my bathroom wall. 

And here's a free pattern from Red Heart for hanging baskets on a dowel. I love the look of these, and you can make them in any length.

Another great looking hanging basket comes from Counting Crafty Sheep's hair tool hanging basket pattern: 

Do you know of any other great clutch or storage basket patterns?

What Are You Doing? July 2019 Blog Hop

Welcome to July! There was an issue with my linky tools account last month, so I was not able to post June's list. I hope you can join us for this month's blog hop!

I have started collecting some works in progress (WIPs) from May. I started with a tapestry crochet project from Hooks, Yarns and Loops. I'm taking a break on this one and picked up an boho tank top pattern from Hooked on Homemade Happiness. I'll try to take a few new pictures this month!
