Hanging pots are ideal for ampelous plants, which, of course, can also be made by hand. Macrame pots immediately come to mind, but we offer another option - let's crochet the pots today.

To crochet a flowerpot with your own hands, you needed:

plastic pot (top diameter - 12 cm, bottom - 8.3 cm, pot height - 10 cm);

YarnArt Macrame yarn;

hook number 2;

matches or lighter;

plastic ring for suspension (in our case - from the cornice).

How to make a planter for flowers with your own hands: a master class

Let's get to work.

I give a description for knitting a planter, which will allow you to arrange a pot of any size.

1 row. We make an amigurumi ring and, without tying it immediately, we knit a chain of air loops, equal in length to the diameter of the bottom flower pot... In my case, this is 20 air loops. We attach the amigurumi to the ring using a single crochet. We again knit a chain of air loops of the same length - and again attach the amigurumi to the ring with a single crochet. We repeat several times. For a small pot, it is enough to make six such petals. For the pot bigger size increase the number of petals. The only requirement is that the number of petals multiplied by two is divisible by 4 an integer. Those. we have 6 petals. Multiply by 2. We get 12. 12 is perfectly divisible by 4.

2 row. Now we have to choose the optimal number of air loops to connect the tops of the petals. In my case, it turned out 9 air loops. I knit 9 air loops, a single crochet at the top of the next petal, again 9 vp. and so on until the end of the row. Trying on the pot: these connecting chains of air loops should quite tightly cover the pot at the bottom of its walls. I had to bandage before I found the right number of loops so that the knit did not dangle from the pot, but fit tightly. We end the row with a connecting post.

3 row. 3 vp lifting + 1 v.p. Next, you need to calculate the pattern. Because I have 9 VP in each fragment between the petals, I decided to knit a pattern according to the scheme “4 tbsp. with a crochet + 1 VP + 4 tbsp. with a crochet ". Calculate in the same way: if you have, say, 7 loops, it can be a "3 + 1 + 3" pattern, and if there is an even number, say, 6, then you can also take a "3 + 1 + 3" pattern.

So, we have tied three air lift loops plus one dividing one. Around the chain of air loops of the previous row, I knit 4 double crochets, 1 vp. and again 4 double crochets, following the pattern calculated above. Further - 1 vp. and around the next chain of the previous row - 4 tbsp. with a crochet, 1 vp, 4 tbsp. with a crochet. We knit to the end of the row, end the row with a connecting post.

4 row. Depends on the previous row: for transitions, take as many air loops as there were double crochets in each fragment of the previous row. Those. I have it: 3 vp rise, transition from 4 vp, then - 1 st. with a crochet in the "dividing" air loop of the previous row, again 4 vp. transition - and 1 st. with a crochet into the next dividing air loop of the previous row. Thus, we knit to the end of the row.

5 row - like 3.

Try on the pot after each row! It turns out too tight - which means we add a loop in each transition or in each fragment of the double crochets.

In my pot, it turned out like this:

6 row - like 4, only in each transition there is one more loop, i.e. 5 vp each

7th row - like 3, only in each fragment it also became one column more, i.e. 5 st. with a crochet.

8 row - like 6.

9 row. - like 7.

10 row - like 6.

11 row - like 7.

We have already reached the top of our pot. We count all the fragments, divide them into 4 parts. You can use knitting markers for this.

12 row. I have 12 fragments divided into 4 by 3 pieces. So I knit like this. I knit three fragments with double crochets. In the dividing air loops of the previous row - also along the double crochet. After going through three fragments, I knit a long chain of chain stitches. I knitted a chain 75 cm long, i.e. twice as long as the desired hanging height of the planter. Having reached the end of the chain, we turn and knit a row of double crochets along it.

Having reached the end, we knit 3 more fragments with double crochets. We put a ring on the suspension.

We attach the suspension tape to the last double crochet using a single crochet. Further - 3 vp. and another single crochet in a ribbon. We continue to knit three more fragments. Again - a tape for suspension, we pass the tape into the ring. We knit three more fragments with double crochets - and attach the ribbon in the described way. We tie the last three fragments, close the row with a connecting post.

Row 13 - a row of single crochets to seal the edge.

Do-it-yourself flower pots are ready!

DIY pots - great way liven up standard plastic or clay pots, and add a touch of identity to the interior.

Beautiful do-it-yourself pots can also become an expressive accent in the decor, if you choose bright colors for them.

Today, as you may have guessed from the photo, we will talk about knitted pots.

By the way, knitted flower pots- a great gift! Just buy a potted flower and crochet the planter to it- it will turn out both interesting and not trivial.

Crochet pots is a quick way to add interesting accents to flower pots. In fact - knitted flower pots is a hollow cylinder or cone with a cut off top. Sometimes the pots are knitted with a bottom - for this you need to know.

Therefore, to crochet flower pots no special knowledge is needed - tie a chain of air loops, close it in a ring and continue crocheting the rows to the desired height. Sometimes, if the shape of the pot requires it, it is necessary to make increments, therefore, in the case of a large difference in diameters, choose simple patterns crochet, or crochet patterns, which are easily transformed during increments.

In today's selection you will find crochet crochet patterns, including on English language... You can use, or choose a favorite, and tie the pots By photo.

Crocheted primrose flowers in pots - the work of Irina.

For knitting primroses I used a hook 1.5, Bebe alize thread for flowers and a pot and yarn art angora de luxe for leaves. The consumption is very small.

You can watch a master class on knitting daisies.

Daffodils. One of my first works. I knit recently, about the second month. I really like the knitting process itself. I take the schemes from the Internet.

Author Olga. Flowers and leaves are crocheted of KARTOPU acrylic yarn, and the pot is made of semi-woolen yarn.
Hook No. 1.75, product weight 230 g. Used: yarn 200g., Wire 90cm, synthetic winterizer. Flowers 7 pcs., Leaves 11 pcs., Bouquet height 28.5 cm.

Flowers, leaves and a pot are knitted of half-woolen yarn.
Hook No. 1.75. Product weight 230 gr. Used: yarn 200g., Wire 90cm. Sintepon. Height 27 cm.

As a vase - tied plastic bottle... I did not glue the middle of the flower, but sew it on. It is better not to starch the flowers, but to moisten them in sugar syrup and shape them while they are wet. Pre-wrap the wire with not thick yarn, then bend the end of the wire with pliers. Then glue the flower to the wire.

You will need: for pots - leftover pink yarn, as well as white mohair and black or gray wool (the yarn should not be thin); for cacti - green yarn; for flowers - pink and yellow melange; hook number 3; molds for pots (for example: plastic containers for dessert).

Crochet in a pot. Azure Lily.

Leaves and a pot of fine acrylic yarn, hook No. 1, 75, weight finished product 220 gr. (yarn -180 gr.), wire, synthetic winterizer. Height 23 cm, width by colors 20 cm.

Leaves- 6 pcs., flowers- 5 pieces.

The idea and inspiration for flowers was taken by and.

Flower petals 6 pcs. :
chain 20 air. etc. (more or less loops are possible, depending on the thread and the desired length of the petal).
In the 3rd st. From the hook, start single crochet; at the bottom of the petal in one loop -2 tbsp. without a crochet; 4 lifting loops, art. with 3 yarns; at the top of the petal -5-tbsp. from the 3rd yarn in one loop; to the end of the row, columns from the 3rd crochet, 4 air. NS.
Each column with 3 pico crochets from 3 loops. The wire is knitted when I knit st. with 3 yarns. Cut and tighten the wire.

Buds the same as described above, only the petals are shorter by 10 air points. and 15 air items chains.

Leaves 6 pcs .: a chain of 40 loops: in the 3rd p. of the chain 1connected p., 36st. b / n, 3st.b / n in one, 2p. lifting, 1st stage. from 1n., 1s 2n., 27 st. from the 3rd n., 1 half-st. from 3n., 1 tbsp. from 2n, 1 half-st. from 2n., 1 tbsp. with 1n, 1sem. with 1n, 1connected, at the top: 1st.b / n + 1air. + 1st.b / n., 1connected., 1sem. from 1n, 1st. from 1n, 1 half-st. from 2n., 1 tbsp. from 2n., 1 half-st. from 3n., 27st. from 3n., 1s. 2n., 1s. from 1n., 2 air p.

Leaves- I tied a thin wire in a circle with yarn in the "rachis step" method and tightly wrap the tails with thread. I give the desired shape to the leaf by bending the wire.

Note: changing "27 Art. from the 3rd n. ", the number of columns, the length of the leaf changes.

Middle of the flower- my fantasy, wrapped the wire with a thread of different colors.

Stem- "tube", from 9 loops of the chain with single crochet to knit to the desired length, then - in each of the loops, knit two sts. without a crochet. Then knit without adding sts. without crochet to the desired height (without lifting loops).
I insert and fix the wire into the detail of the bottom of the flower (I twist it into a ring) and sew the detail of the bottom to the flower. Filled the voids with padding polyester.
I tighten the assembled bouquet with a thick thread to secure it.

Pot this is my fantasy (you can knit in another way): for the pot I was typing a chain of 42p. in two threads, without adding or subtracting loops, knitted 9cm (without lifting loops) in a circle - 1 st. without crochet, 1p. airy, repeating so to the end.

Saucer: by tying the desired height of the pot, dial 42p from the beginning of knitting the pot into a chain. and tie 3 cm.

Earth: I collect a chain of 15 points from black yarn. How to knit a circle look video... I just knit a circle of the required diameter along the diameter of the pot with a small hole in the center for a bouquet, and I put flowers on a wire there.

I fill the pot with a padding polyester, sew on the ground, at the bottom of the pot I wrap the wire in different directions (the flowers will not fall out), I supplement it with padding polyester. I'm tying the bottom.

Crochet lilies

Leaves and a pot acrylic yarn, flowers, thin wool blend yarn, hook number 1, 75, weight of the finished product 290 gr. (yarn -260 gr.), wire 90 cm, synthetic winterizer, beads.

Height 23 cm.

Flowers knitted according to the scheme and description: http://nina-kir.ru/post275971047/; ...

Flowers - in a circle tied a thin wire with a thread of dark color.

I had wanted for a long time, tried it many times and kept throwing it: I didn't like the yarn, then the middle turned out to be stupid, then the leaves did not come out. This time it all came together. The bumblebee is just not enough)


Under the cut 5 clickable photos on the topic "How it was".
The green part of the bud is a cap with five leaves. The leaves are tied on a wire. The petals for the bud are knitted in one piece, which is then twisted tightly with a tube.


There is one problem with assembling the leaf: the stem turns out to be quite thick. This time I left everything as it is. Theoretically, one of the two threads from each sheet can be sealed tightly and not two, but one thread can be put under the winding.


The stamens are made exactly as for the blue poppy. As pollen - glitter powder for nail design.


The circle for the petals is connected with half-crochets according to the scheme 7-14-21-28-35 (usually I knit with single crochets, but here I had to go 35 loops). The petals are knitted in Tunisian technology on every six base loops. There is a one loop gap between the petals. The notch characteristic of rosehip petals is knitted due to increases and decreases. In an amicable way, it would be necessary to knit each petal with a separate piece on that-oh-oh-one little leg, but then there will be a hassle with the assembly.


The assembly is standard. On the last row, a stem from a bud with a leaf is tied to the green circle depicting a sepal. Increases in the last row are no longer made by count, but more often, focusing on the thickness of the stem to be tied.

Iris crochet: description

Iris crocheted 0.5 from thin silk threads in three folds. It is convenient to rewind threads from spools on plastic spools for floss in advance.

For the outer petal with a yellow thread, dial 22 VP. Starting from the third loop from the hook, knit 20 stbn to the end. Expand knitting: knit 20 stbn, knit 3 stbn from the end of the part (into the jumper from VP), knit 20 stbn. Expand knitting: knit 20 stbn, then 3 times 2 stbn in one loop, then 20 stbn. Expand knitting; attach a wire along the edge and tie the stbn part (you should get 46 columns). Attach a burgundy thread. Knit 1 sc. Next knit with Tunisian technique (photo 2) ... In the typesetting row, the last - edge - loop is pulled from the column of the yellow part. In the back row, all loops are knitted in two. At the beginning of each typesetting row, after the edge and the first Tunisian column, an increase is made by pulling the loop from the horizontal lintel between the columns of the previous row. The increments stop when there are 12 loops on the hook, counting the hem (photo 4) ... The next row needs to be knitted with a shortened (photo 5, 6) : in the typesetting row, do not pull the loops from the last two columns, in the back row, knit the first loop single, knit the rest in two. Alternate full and short rows.

Knit 4 wedges from the end. Each wedge is knitted in the following ways: a shortened row of 9 posts, then a shortened row of 6 posts, then 3 posts, 6 posts, 9 posts and finally a full row (photo 9, 10) ... The left side of the petal is knitted symmetrically. 12 rows before completion, at the beginning of each typesetting row, a decrease is made by pulling a loop from two Tunisian columns at the same time. From the front side, attach a lilac thread, attach a wire to the edge of the petal and tie a pico piece (photo 15-18) .

For the base of the stem, take 15 cm of thick wire, at the end, twist a spiral with an inner diameter approximately equal to the thickness of all wire and thread ends coming from the three inner petals (photo 37, 38) ... Thread these wires / threads inside the spiral (photo 40) ... Place the petals right side out. Start wrapping the green thread around the stem (photo 41) ... Attach outer petals one at a time (photo 42, 43) , the base for the brooch (photo 44, 45) .

At the level of one and a half to two centimeters after fastening, bend the stem, forming a loop, and continue winding in the opposite direction. Having reached the base of the petals, close up the thread.


The clasp should be fastened higher than shown in the photo: almost immediately under the petals. If the clasp is low, the flower dangles, especially on thin fabric.
Good luck!
