nature-themed crochet room decor: garlands, hammock, & hanging plant pot (written patterns + video tutorial)


Hi everyone! Here are the written patterns for some nature-themed crochet pieces. As a reminder, please make sure to watch the youtube tutorial before attempting to follow the pattern because the format is a bit different than usual. 

1. Pot

Make a magic ring and chain 1

Round 1 - 8 sc

Round 2 - 2 sc in every stitch (total 16)

Round 3 - 1 sc, increase (total 24)

Round 4 - 2 sc, increase (total 32)

Round 6 - 4 sc, increase (total 48)

Round 7 - 1 sc in every stitch, work in the back loops only (total 48)

Round 8 to 18 - 1 sc in every stitch (total 48)

NOTE: To make the soil, do the same steps from round 1 to 6

2. Small leaf branches

Make a slip knot and chain 4

First leaf - 2 dc into the 3rd chain from your hook, chain 2 picot, 2 dc into the same chain, chain 2, ss into the same chain, ss into the next chain

Chain any number for the stem (I chain 5 after every leaf)

Second leaf onwards - chain 3 more for the leaf, 2 dc into the 3rd chain from your hook, chain 2 picot, 2 dc into the same chain, chain 2, ss into the same chain, ss into the next chain

Chain any number for the stem and repeat

3. Large leaf branches

Make a slip knot and chain 9

First leaf - sc into the 2nd chain from your hook, hdc, dc, 2 dc, dc, hdc, sc...

...chain 2 then work on the other side of the chains, sc, hdc, dc, 2 dc, dc, hdc, sc, chain 2, ss down the centre of the leaf, ss into the chain 2, ss into the stem chain

Chain any number for the stem (I chain 8 after every leaf)

Second leaf onwards: chain 8, sc into the 2nd chain from your hook, hdc, dc, 2 dc, dc, hdc, sc... 

...chain 2 then work on the other side of the chains, sc, hdc, dc, 2 dc, dc, hdc, sc, chain 2, ss down the centre of the leaf, ss into the chain 2, ss into the stem chain

Chain any number for the stem and repeat

4. Ruffle leaf branches

Make a slip knot then chain the length you want (I recommend at least 80-100)

Chain 2 more then dc into the 3rd chain from your hook

Row 1 - 2 dc into every chain

Row 2 - chain 2 and turn your work to start this next row, 1 dc into every stitch

8. Hammock (for holding yarns/plushies)

Make a slipknot and chain 6, ss into the first chain, chain 4

Work into the space formed between the chains: 1 dc, chain 2, 1 dc
