Crocheting allows you to create beautiful and functional items for your home, letting you add a personal handmade touch to your decor. One popular thing to make among crocheters is plant hangers. Not only do these crochet plant hangers provide a decorative touch to your home, but they also serve as a functional way for your plants to be up and out of the way, saving counter and table space.
If you’re new to crochet, or looking for an easy crochet project to try out, then this crochet wall plant hanger pattern is perfect and it is a great stash buster.
The pattern is beginner-friendly, which means you don’t need to have advanced skills or tons of crochet experience to make it.
This hanging crochet plant basket is designed to fit a 4-inch plant pot, and you can adjust the height of the basket to fit your needs by changing the number of times a 2 row repeat is done.
The best part about this pattern is that it uses less than 50 yards of a #4 medium-weight yarn, which makes it a great stash-busting project. You can choose any color of yarn you like and make a basket that complements your home decor. Cotton yarn works best, but you can use any type of yarn that you would like. So grab your crochet hook and some yarn, and let’s get started on this fun and easy crochet wall plant hanger pattern!
