I present to you my ever popular leather bases. The idea for these leather bases came from seeing the wooden ones. However I wanted an option that was not rigid, instead beautifully tactile yet still sturdy and elegant.
In this listing you will find the 3″, 5″ and 7″ leather bases in your choice of colour. I have also written my very first crochet pattern using a simple single crochet stitch. The pattern is available by joining my mailing list.
I have also made a video on YouTube to show you visually how to crochet a basket using my 3″ leather base. It takes you through the process in a simple and easy to do way.
I have also designed and made end stitch covers. They are a beautiful way to finish off the item you made and give it that professional touch I have put together sets of three covers in an array of colour combinations. Please head here to choose your set. These end stitch covers can be used for many different projects.
If you would like to buy the leather bases individually please check these listings:
All leather in these sets are made from reclaimed leather.
The leather bases may have words stamped on the backside from the manufacturer indicating who processed it or how big the size of the hide was. If you prefer not to receive leather with such markings please indicate during checkout and I will check each item to ensure none are present.
Typical characteristics found in natural leather, including and not limited to: scrapes, healed scars, fat wrinkles, skin blemishes, bug bites, colour and grain variation

These are great! I fiddled a bit with different hook sizes and yarn weights and ended up loving the look of doubled up chunky yarn with a size 10 hook (I user a smaller hook to pull through the holes in the leather base). Comes together really fast and is such a great option for a handmade gift!
