A Crocheted Bowl Pattern is the 4th in a series of posts I’ve been writing about storage ideas that you can make quickly and easily! If you haven’t seen the previous posts in this series, you might like to check them out.
A Drawstring Bag From a Pillowcase
This little crocheted bowl is worked in a circle using double and treble crochet. The edge of the bowl is finished with picot edging.
To make a larger bowl, you could either use heavier weight yarn and a larger hook, or when making the base of the bowl, you can continue increasing for more rounds instead of just 8, then continue with the pattern.
How to Make a Crocheted Bowl
Please be aware that being English I have used British crocheting terms! At the end of each round, join the last stitch to the first with a slip stitch.
Make 4 ch, join with ss OR make a magic ring.
1. 6 dc into the ring. Join with ss.
2. 1 ch, then *2 dc into next st* 6 times. 12 stitches.
3. 1 ch, then *1 dc into next st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 18 stitches.
4. 1 ch, then *1 dc into next st, 1 dc into next st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 24 stitches.
5. 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 3 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 30 stitches.
6. 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 4 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 36 stitches.
7. 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 5 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. Join with ss. 42 stitches.
8. 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 6 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 46 stitches.
9. 1 ch, then 1 dc into each stitch.
10. 1 ch, then 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 7 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 54 stitches.
11. 1 ch, then 1 dc into each stitch.
12. 1 ch, then 1 ch, then *1 dc into each of next 8 st, 2 dc into next st* 6 times. 60 stitches.
13. 1 ch, then 1 dc into each stitch.
14. Repeat row 13.
15. 2 ch, then 1 tr into each stitch.
16. 1 ch, then 1 dc into each stitch.
17. Repeat row 15.
18. Repeat row 16.
19. This row makes the shell edging. 2 ch, then 4 tr into 3rd st from hook, *1 dc into 3rd stitch along, 5 tr into next 3rd stitch along* until the edging has been made all the way round.
Cut yarn and weave in ends.
I’m going to be using my little crocheted bowl for all the bits of Lego that find their way into the washing machine!
I used this yarn from Hobbycraft and a 3.5 mm crochet hook from this set from Amazon. These are affiliate links.

Im confused on row 10 ch1 then ch1 then 7 dc for a total of 54..tried 3x not working out..ur help is greatly appreciated..💕
Hi Cindy, sorry for the delay in replying, I’ve been in holiday. It’s an awfully long time since I wrote this post, but it looks like there is a mistake in row 10. All the previous rows increase by 6 each time, and it appears that I was having an issue with maths that day! I think 1 chain would probably be enough. then 1 dc into each of the next 7 stitches, then 2 into the 8th, ending up with 52 stitches, not 54. If that doesn’t work please get back to me x
Love this, thanks for writtin out the pattern
You’re welcome. If you make one, I’d love to see it!
This is such a sweet idea. Thanks for sharing at Creative Mondays
