Materials

• Scissors
• Measuring tape
• Yarn needle

Basic Plant Hanger

The basic plant hanger is the simplest of the three hangers, and it's a great place to start if you're new to crochet. It's made with a simple chain stitch and single crochet stitch, and it can be customized to any length you want.

Instructions:

1. Chain 100 stitches.
2. Single crochet into the second chain from the hook. Single crochet into each remaining chain across.
3. Chain 1 and turn. Single crochet into each single crochet across.
4. Repeat Step 3 until the hanger is the desired length.
5. Fasten off and weave in loose ends.

Decorative Hanging Planter

The decorative hanging planter is a bit more elaborate than the basic plant hanger, but it's still easy to make. It features a granny square motif, which adds a touch of color and texture to the hanger.

Instructions:

1. Make a granny square according to your desired size.
2. Single crochet around the edge of the granny square.
3. Chain 1 and turn. Single crochet into each single crochet around.
4. Repeat Step 3 until the hanger is the desired length.
5. Fasten off and weave in loose ends.

Macrame-Inspired Hanger

The macrame-inspired hanger is the most challenging of the three hangers, but it's also the most stylish. It features a macrame-like knotting technique, which creates a unique and eye-catching design.

Instructions:

1. Cut 4 pieces of yarn, each 12 feet long.
2. Fold the yarn in half and tie a lark's head knot around the top of a ring or dowel.
3. Divide the yarn into two groups of two, and knot them together using a square knot.
4. Repeat Step 3 with the remaining two groups of yarn.
5. Continue knotting until the hanger is the desired length.
6. Fasten off and weave in loose ends.

Tips

• When choosing yarn for your plant hanger, keep in mind the weight of the plants you'll be hanging. Worsted weight yarn is a good choice for most plants, but you may want to use a thicker yarn for heavier plants.
• The hook size you use will also affect the size and drape of your hanger. A smaller hook size will create a tighter, denser hanger, while a larger hook size will create a looser, more airy hanger.
• To care for your finished hanger, simply hand wash it in cold water and lay it flat to dry.

Crochet plant hangers are a quick and easy way to add a touch of greenery to your home. They're also a great way to use up leftover yarn and to personalize your décor. With a little practice, you'll be able to create beautiful and unique plant hangers that will add a touch of style to your home for years to come.
