Joselyn also advises using pebbles inside the pot for added stability. A helpful tip is to use cardboard or rubber foam at the pot’s base to provide extra firmness and maintain its shape. Here is a quick overview of this crochet pot guide:
- Making the Pot: Start with a magic ring and work six single crochets. Gradually increase rounds with single crochets and increase to shape the base and top. Add cardboard for structure and fill the pot with pebbles and fiberfill for weight and firmness.
- Creating the Leaves: Crochet seven chains and work along the chain with single, half-double, and double crochets to form a leaf shape.
Wrap the stick with green thread, securing the leaves with silicone glue for a natural look. - Crocheting the Heart: Start with a magic ring and work the upper heart sections as two identical pieces. Join the pieces and shape the heart with single crochets, decreases, and careful stuffing.
Secure the heart to a stick using silicone glue for stability. - Final Touches and Assembly: Combine the heart and pot, ensuring symmetry and stability. Add decorative details like bows or pearls to personalize the design.
