Materials Needed:
- 2 different acrylic yarns
- 4 mm crochet hook
- Yarn needles
- Scissors

Making the Pot Base:
Start with a magic circle, secure it with a chain stitch.
- Chain 2 (counts as the first double crochet).
- Make 11 double crochets into the circle (total of 12 double crochets including the chain 2).
- Continue with double crochets until the round is complete.
- Pull the end to tighten the circle, then make a slip stitch into the third chain from the beginning chains to end the round.
- Chain 3 and double crochet into the same stitch.
- Make 2 double crochets into each stitch around, resulting in 24 stitches total.
- End with a slip stitch into the third chain.
- Chain 3, then double crochet into each stitch for the round to start shaping the pot’s curve.
- Slip stitch into the third chain to finish.
- Repeat step 9 for three additional rounds to form the body of the pot.
- Cut the yarn after fastening off with a ch1 and a long pull-through loop. Flip the pot to show the good side of the stitches outward.
Stuffing the Pot:
Stuff the pot securely with stuffing.
Making the Plant Vines:
- Begin with a slip knot; chain 3.
- Create a puff stitch by pulling loops through the chains, as detailed in steps above.
- Repeat the puff stitch process as desired to create vines.
- Chain 1 and cut the yarn to finish each vine.
- Repeat this section to create more vines.
Constructing the Pot’s Top and Hanging Straps:
- Start again with a magic circle, chain 3 and make 11 double crochets (total of 12).
- Progress as prior rounds making 2 double crochets in each stitch.
- Slip stitch to complete the round.
- For hangers, chain 30, then attach to the pot counting 6 stitches between each, creating a total of 4 hanging straps.
Assembling the Hanging Pot:
- Gather all plant vines and align them evenly.
- Thread the vines through the center top hole of the pot and secure with knots.
- Attach the pot’s top by threading yarn through aligned stitches and secure all ends within the pot.
- Knot the hanging straps collectively to prepare for hanging.
- Cut yarn ends as needed and position the vines aesthetically.
Finishing Touches:
- Hang the crochet pot on a hook or preferred location.
- Ensure all yarn ends are securely woven in, maintaining the structure of the pot.
