(Three Colors)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">STEP 1: Crochet the Base (Color A)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The base should match the bottom of your box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make a slip knot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chain the number of stitches equal to the length of your box.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Example: Chain 26 stitches for 9 inches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add 1 extra chain for turning.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Row 1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single crochet in second chain from hook.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Single crochet across.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chain 1 and turn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Row 2 onward:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single crochet across.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chain 1 and turn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue until width matches your box bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fasten off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You now have a flat rectangle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">STEP 2: Build the Walls (Color B)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Now we work upward around the base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attach Color B in any corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Round 1:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single crochet evenly around entire rectangle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work 3 sc in each corner stitch to help it turn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slip stitch to join.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Important:<br>Place stitch markers at corners to maintain shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">STEP 3: Work the Height<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue working in rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Round 2\u2013Height:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single crochet in each stitch around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>No increases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slip stitch to join each round.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Continue until height matches your box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>8\u201310 rounds for 4 inches height.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You now have a simple open box shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">STEP 4: Add Third Color Decorative Top (Color C)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Attach Color C.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Round 1 (Decorative Edge Option 1 \u2013 Simple Clean Edge):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Single crochet around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slip stitch to join.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Round 2:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chain 1.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work (sc, ch 1, skip 1 stitch) around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Slip stitch to join.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates a subtle decorative top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Decorative Edge Option 2 \u2013 Slightly Fancy but Easy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In each stitch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>1 single crochet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 half double crochet<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternate stitches around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives texture and a finished look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fasten off and weave in ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Optional: Add a Top Opening (For Tissue Box)<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>If making a tissue box holder:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before building height:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mark center of one long side.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Leave opening space (skip stitches).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chain across opening.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Continue single crochet around.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This creates a top slot for pulling tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large

tight tension.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Use cotton yarn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Insert plastic canvas inside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add cardboard between lining.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator
