Crochet Mini Kumquat Plant Pot Tutorial
Skill Level: Intermediate. (You’ll need magic ring, chain stitch, single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, triple crochet, increases, decreases, slip stitch, and working in back which she calls the proportional. You will also need sewing and color changes, plus expertise in crocheting the advanced stitches that need the basic stitches again.)
Tutorial Timing: Approximately 27 minutes only. (Perfect for getting your hands on a complex amigurumi project and practicing the basic amigurumi techniques. You will also learn many new stitches that the tutor doesn’t name.)
Personalization Tips: The pattern for crocheting the orange amigurumi is very generic. So, you can also crochet this plant project for fall as an apple plant, and even a lemon or pumpkin plant!
