01 of 05 Crochet Spider Plant Hanging
The Spider Plant is a great way to use up green scrap yarn, featuring long, pointed leaves and a small hanging pot. The pattern includes a textured border on the leaves that makes them look more realistic and detailed.
General Making:
You’ll crochet three or more long leaves by chaining 13 and working different stitch heights—starting with slip stitches at the tip, growing into half-double and double crochets, and then mirroring the same stitches on the other side. The “soil” is a simple brown circle of double crochets that you attach the leaves to before sewing it onto a stuffed, bucket-shaped pot. To finish, add a long chain handle to the top of the pot so the plant can be hung up.

02 of 05 Crochet Wisteria Plant Hanging
This version has long, flowing vines with clusters of petals that get larger as they go up, making it look full and magical. It’s a beginner-friendly project that uses simple chains and slip stitches to create a beautiful hanging decoration.
General Making:
You’ll make five or more vines of different lengths by chaining around 35 and working back up the chain. For each vine, you’ll alternate between small clusters of three chains and larger clusters of five or six chains, slip-stitching them into the back bumps to create the petal shapes. The vines are then pulled through a small brown “soil” circle and knotted on the underside. To finish, sew the soil onto a white stuffed pot and add a long chain handle so you can hang your wisteria anywhere.

03 of 05 Crochet Teardrop Leaf Plant Hanging
The Teardrop Leaf Plant has a pot made with a “yarn under” trick, which makes the stitches look like little X’s and keeps the stuffing from poking out. The leaves get their wide, raindrop shape by starting with short stitches, growing into tall ones in the middle, and shrinking back down at the end.
General Making:
To finish the project, you crochet the leaves onto long “vines” and pull them through a brown circle that looks like dirt. After tying the vines together on the inside so they don’t fall out, you sew the dirt onto the pot. You can make the hanging loop any length you want just by changing how many chains you do at the very end.

04 of 05 Crochet Curly Vine Plant Hanging
The Curly Vine Plant has bouncy, spiral vines that look like little springs. It’s a fast project because you just use simple loops to create all that texture.
General Making:
To make the vines, you start with a long chain and put four double crochets at the very end to make a rounded tip. Then, you work back up the chain by doing a single crochet followed by a “chain 5” loop over and over. You pull these vines through a brown “dirt” circle and knot them on the back, then sew the dirt onto a pot. The pot is made with a “yarn under” trick that makes the stitches look like little X’s and keeps the stuffing inside. To finish, you add three hanging chains to the rim and tie them together at the top with a bead.

05 of 05 Crochet Curly Vine Plant Hanging
The Curly Cutie (Donkey Tail) plant has thick, springy vines that stack up like a dense spiral. It’s a great project if you like repetitive patterns because the vines are made using the same stitch over and over to get that tight curl.
General Making:
To make the vines, you start with a long chain and put three single crochets into the back loop of every single stitch. This extra “overstuffing” of stitches is what makes the vine twist into a coil. After making a few vines at different lengths, you pull them through a brown “dirt” circle and knot them on the back. You then sew that dirt circle onto a small pot made of half double crochets, which gives it a smooth and sturdy look. To finish, you add three long hanging chains to the rim of the pot and tie them together at the top.
