Mmm, the buttery smell of popcorn, and the crunch!! 


Honestly, there were times when I felt sluggish and uninspired. Life happens. So to be honest, I wasn't thinking about popcorn at all. I just wanted to make a drawstring bag of some kind, so I grabbed some yellow cotton yarn (it was sitting at the top of the pile, and I wanted a happy-looking color to brighten up my mood) and very aimlessly started crocheting. Of course there was no magic. It didn't come immediately. After many, many times of frogging...... Voila! I ended up with delicious-looking butter popcorn that I wished I could eat! 

Because of how uninspired I was feeling, you can imagine how pleased I was with my butter popcorn drawstring bag. This is an original stitch, which I decided to name the Butter Popcorn stitch (duh!😉).

I hope you'll enjoy my version of butter popcorn!

I'm really excited to share this new crochet macrame basket project with you 
because it's made using the Spark Stitch - my very own crochet stitch design.
This stitch sparkles and makes sturdy baskets!!


I published a video tutorial for this crochet macrame basket way earlier but didn't make a blog post for this. For those who already saw the tutorial or even made one, I hope you found the tutorial helpful and were happy with the result.

I really do like a decorative basket once in a while because they declutter my desk. After I shared my other macrame basket project, I received a couple of requests for more, so these macrame baskets came along. 

The word 'decluttering' made me think of words like 'squeaky clean' and 'sparkles.' This is how the 'Spark Stitch' was born! 
It did take several frogs until I was satisfied with how the stitch looked, but it was well worth the frogs!🐸


Materials Needed:
2mm colored cotton macrame cord (I used about 60g)
Crochet Hook: 3.50mm (US E/4) 
Stitch Markers (recommended)
Yarn Needle
Scissors

Skills Required (US terms used):
CH = Chain
SLST = Slip Stitch
SC = Single Crochet
YO = Yarn Over
