🌱 Soil (inner pot liner)
With dark brown or black yarn:
Repeat rounds 1–7 of pot base.
Rnd 8–11: sc in each st (42)
Fasten off. This part sits snugly inside the pot.
🍃 Ivy Leaves (make 3–4 in each green shade, or more as desired)
Each leaf is a 3-pointed shape crocheted continuously:
Ch 6, work back along the chain:
Rnd 1: sl st in 2nd ch from hook, sc, hdc, dc, 3 dc in last st. Turn your work to other side of chain: dc, hdc, sc, sl st (12 total stitches). Fasten off.
Block gently if needed to sharpen points.
🌿 Vines (make 6–8)
With green yarn (vary shades for realism):
Ch 40–90 (vary the length for natural trailing effect)
Row 1: sc in each ch from 2nd ch from hook.
Fasten off. Weave in end at bottom. Leave top tail for sewing to soil.
🌈 Color Changing Tips
To create realistic depth:
- Use light green yarn for the outermost vines.
- Use darker green closer to the pot.
- You may change shades mid-vine by fastening off one color and continuing with another in the next stitch. Hide the color change on the underside when sewing on leaves.
🍃 Attaching Leaves
- Evenly space 3–5 leaves along each vine.
- Use a yarn needle and matching green yarn to sew the flat base of each leaf to a vine.
Tip: Sew most leaves facing downward, some tilted, to mimic gravity.
🪴 Assembly
- Insert the soil disc into the pot.
- Sew all vine tops around the inner edge of the soil (inside the pot).
- Optional: tack a few vines loosely to the edge of the pot so they appear “growing out.”
- Attach 3 equal strands of cord or cotton yarn to the pot edge evenly and tie in a knot for hanging.
🎀 Final Notes
This ivy plant never wilts and adds instant cheer to windows, shelves, or wall hooks! You can scale the project up or down by using thicker or thinner yarn. Mix up the greens, or even add flower blossoms for a seasonal twist.
