I recently received a rosebush claiming to be "indoor", something I've never grown before. Very shortly after acquiring it, the plant became root bound. When transplanting I discovered there was more than one bush in the pot, and was able to split them. Now I have two new rosebushes. But again I need hangers for the pots. So once more, I turn to the trusty crochet hook.
This pattern is designed to fit up to a one-gallon planter. The design is similar to the Small Plant Hanger, only even easier.
*I feel I should apologize for the pictures. That mischievous little troll has visited me again; this time he killed my digital camera battery and caused a problem in my cell camera in the same day. I'm not happy with fuzzy pictures and I bet he's laughing his little troll behind off, but I'm not letting that stop this pattern from being posted. Maybe he's mad that I never crochet him anything. Hmm...I sense a new pattern forming...
For now, let's get back to this one.
