You will need:
2.5 mm hook
DK weight yarn
9 seed beads
It’s important to work tightly so that the pot retains its structure. Cotton yarn will work best for the pot, but any type of yarn can be used for the flowers.
Two colours are needed for the flowers – whatever combination you like.
The finished pot has a diameter of 7.5 cm / 3 inches.
