I know how to weave a `basket weave` cloth on my loom, i know how to knit a basket pattern ? but just now can`t recall a basket weave CROCHET pattern , only one that comes to mind is the afghan /tunisian pattern ???? can you describe the pattern a bit more ,,
But any crochet can be decreased by just doubling a stitch . mirjam

Hallo Dennis , a good day to you as well . mirjam
Are you talking about the one that starts with 'one weave' works its way up to say 30 weaves across and then goes back down to "one weave"? Afghan commonly known as 'Idiot's Delight"? It starts out with one, works it's way to howsoever wide you want: either a square or rectangle. and then you work your way back down to one 'square or weave' when you're finished. If so, I just finished doing one like that and I'll dig the pattern out for you.

hmmm, I'm aware of a basketweave stitch in KNITTING, but NOT in crochet. Also, if it's a BLANKET, which is usually either square or rectangular, I'm at a loss as to why you'd even NEED to DECREASE?? JM2C, Noreen going back on Sabbatical/Hiatus.

Maybe it's a blanket for a hammock - wide in the middle and narrow at the ends
It seems that nobody found the solution to this mystery i will later leaf through some Mags and books and see if i can solve this !!! mirjam
Picked up a free pattern at Michaels that is titled:
Crochet Corner to Corner Throw. The decrease directions are as follows: With CC, slip stitch across first 3 dc *(slip st, ch 3, 3 dc) all in the next ch-3 space of previous row; repeat from * to last ch-3 space; slip st in last space; turn, do NOT make a block in last space-95 blocks.
If you need anymore help, I can scan and send the pattern directions on to you. (Email me at: Butterfly-Wings at cox dot net)
I know it's been a bit since you requested the info, and I did remember having the pattern, it just took a while to put my hands back on it. HTH Butterfly (infrequent poster)
