Crochet Plant Hanger - Cotton Hanging Pot Holder With Wood Ring

This crochet plant hanger holds a pot up to about 14 cm across and hangs roughly 75 cm from the wooden ring to the base of the cradle. It is worked in cotton in one colour, with a net that spreads to take the weight evenly. It suits a window, a balcony rail, a corner of a kitchen, or a flat where there is no floor space left for plants.

Hanging it safely

1. Check the fixing. Use a hook rated for several kilograms and fixed into a joist or a plug, not into plasterboard alone.
2. Dry fit the pot. Sit the empty pot in the cradle and spread the strands evenly around it before you lift it.
3. Water with care. Take the pot down to water it, or use a saucer, so the cotton is not soaked every week.

If you need a crochet plant hanger with a longer drop, a wider cradle or a matching pair, ask through the custom crochet service.

Where a crochet plant hanger earns its place

A crochet plant hanger solves two problems at once. It frees the surface underneath and it puts the leaves at eye level, where a trailing plant finally looks like something. In a rented flat it also means no shelf brackets, since one hook does the whole job and fills a far smaller hole.

The net shape is what carries the weight. Rather than four cords meeting at a knot, the strands cross several times down the length so the load is shared across the whole cradle. That also lets the pot settle rather than swing. Other home pieces are gathered in the crochet arts and crafts range.

Made to order and shipped worldwide

Nothing is made in advance, so allow 5-10 working days of making time before the parcel leaves us. Every order is tracked, and the shipping information page has the full detail.

Care

Hand wash in cool water with a mild soap, press the water out with a towel, reshape while damp and leave it to air dry away from direct sunlight. Do not wring it and do not tumble dry it. Our amigurumi care guide goes through the same steps in more detail.

Questions people ask

Can the crochet plant hanger be made longer?

Yes. Tell us the drop you need, up to about 120 cm, and we work it to that length for no extra cost.

Does it come with a hook?

No. Fixings vary by wall and ceiling, so we leave the hook to you or your hardware shop.

Will it hold an outdoor plant?

On a covered balcony, yes. In constant rain and sun the cotton will weather faster than it does indoors.

How do I wash it?

Take the pot out, hand wash the hanger in cool water, press it in a towel and dry it flat.

A crochet plant hanger lives in daylight and gets handled, so it is worth reading our guide to caring for crochet pieces and browsing the newest handmade pieces.
