FO Friday - Crochet Flower Potstand

I was cruising through Ravelry when I came across the Crochet Flower Potstand pattern by RubyRed Eclectic. It looked so darling. I did not realize how large it was going to be. It is about 12"x12".

You have to crochet two motifs and then crochet together. I tried to shortcut it with just doing one motif and then adding the single crochet out line of each petal, but it just didn't look right. Sometimes the pattern is just the way to go.


With this one I messed up on one of the motifs. I added an extra row/petal. So I made the extra part the hanger and will have to always keep this side up. Again watching TV and crocheting did not mix.
I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. I'm solo all weekend since the hubby is working and the kids are still visiting with their grandparents. I should be able to finish a few WIPs!!

Please take a moment and check out Tami's Amis blog. There are plenty of FOs to peruse through.

  1. Cute! I'm constantly un-improving patterns. My great ideas often get ahead of good sense :) Glad to see I'm not the only one. Shows a creative mind, I suppose.
