Hanger Pattern

  • Round 1: Join yarn to the wooden ring with a Sl St. Work 15 SC around the ring. Join to first SC.
  • Round 2 (The Hanging Straps): *Ch 60. Sl St into next SC on ring, Sl St in next, Ch 60, Sl St.* (This creates the long hanging cords. You will have 3 loop strands. Adjust length by chaining more or less).
  • Round 3 (The Basket Mesh): Join the three hanging strands together at the bottom. Work a series of Ch5 loops joined by SC to form a mesh basket that cradles the bottom of the pot. Work 4 rounds of Ch5, SC mesh.
  • Round 4 (The Base): Draw all strands together at the bottom, wrap yarn around the base tightly to secure, and cut the ends to make a beautiful tassel fringe.
  • Pro Tips for Success & Pinterest Styling

    Pot Size: Test the hanger with your pot as you work. The mesh stretches significantly when the weight of the pot is added.

    Pinterest Styling: Hang the finished project with a trailing plant (like a pothos) in front of a sunny window. A warm, aesthetic photo will generate massive saves.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Q: What size pot fits this hanger?

    A: It fits standard 4-inch to 6-inch flower pots easily due to the stretch of the mesh.

    Q: Can I hang this outdoors?

    A: Yes, but ensure you use 100% cotton or synthetic macrame cord so it doesn’t degrade in the elements.
