Window Herb Crochet Plant Hanger

Materials

  • Sturdy cotton or cotton-blend yarn
  • Crochet hook that creates a firm fabric
  • Small lightweight plant pot for fit testing
  • Optional wooden or metal ring
  • Stitch markers, scissors, and yarn needle

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Choose a small herb pot that fits near the window safely.
  2. Crochet a sturdy base that supports the pot when watered.
  3. Work vertical side straps instead of loose decorative loops.
  4. Make a firm top loop sized for the window hook.
  5. Hang low enough that the herbs are easy to water and trim.

Fit and finishing tips

Kitchen herb hangers should prioritize access and strength. Use cotton yarn and a washable pot if possible.

Safety note

Test the hanger with the full pot weight before hanging it high. Include the weight of soil, water, and the container, not just the empty pot.
