A simple hanging plant holder with a handmade look that adds texture to a shelf, window, or reading corner.
Skills used in this project
Review any stitch you do not know yet, then come back here and follow the project in order.
Create the base first, then build the hanging body upward.
The project starts with a flat base, grows into the sides, then finishes with long hanging straps and a top ring.
1Start the base
With cream cotton yarn, make a magic ring and crochet the first small round for the pot base.
2Grow the base circle
Increase evenly around until the flat circle approaches the width of the plant pot base.
3Check against the pot
Set the real pot onto the crochet base and confirm the size before building upward.
4Build the lower sides
Stop increasing and work even rounds so the crochet begins to hug the lower pot.
5Add openwork
Create the first simple openwork round with evenly spaced chain openings around the pot.
6Finish the upper rim
Work a firm upper rim round so the top edge sits evenly around the pot.
7Crochet the first strap
From the rim, crochet one long support strap with consistent tension.
8Add the remaining straps
Make the remaining straps at equal spacing and match their lengths carefully.
9Join the hanging ring
Bring all straps to the wooden or metal ring and secure them evenly at the same height.
10Test balance and finish
Hang the holder with the pot inside, check that it sits level, then weave in every tail.
Small details make the finish better.
- Cotton yarn gives better structure than very stretchy acrylic yarn.
- Test the fit with the real pot before finishing the upper straps.
- Keep the straps evenly spaced so the holder hangs straight.
- A simple neutral color makes the project feel more realistic and home-friendly.
