How to Knit a Hanging Planter Holder35


Introduction

Knitting a hanging planter holder is a fun and easy way to add some greenery to your home. These holders are perfect for small plants, such as herbs, succulents, and flowers. They can be hung from a ceiling, a wall, or a tree branch. This tutorial will show you how to knit a simple hanging planter holder using basic knitting stitches.

Materials

To knit a hanging planter holder, you will need the following materials:
Worsted weight yarn in two colors
Knitting needles, size US 7 (4.5mm)
Scissors
Measuring tape
Tapestry needle
Plant pot

Instructions

1. Cast on 36 stitches with the main color yarn.

2. Knit all stitches.

3. Repeat Row 2 until the work measures 6 inches.

4. Bind off all stitches.

5. Fold the work in half lengthwise, matching the two cast-on edges. Sew the two sides together, leaving a 1-inch opening at the top.

6. Turn the work right side out. Fold the top edge over twice and stitch it down to create a casing for the cord.

7. Cut a piece of yarn that is twice the desired length of the hanger. Thread the yarn through the casing and tie the ends together.

8. Insert the plant pot into the holder and hang it from a ceiling, wall, or tree branch.

Tips
You can use any type of worsted weight yarn for this project. However, a cotton yarn will be more durable and easier to care for.
If you want to make a larger holder, cast on more stitches. For a smaller holder, cast on fewer stitches.
You can add a fringe to the bottom of the holder by cutting strips of yarn and tying them to the bottom edge.
You can also add beads or other embellishments to the holder to make it more unique.
