Pattern Instructions

Start with the base. You can make the “pot” any colour you want.

Make a magic ring.  

Round 1: Ch 1, 8 dc into magic ring and pull tight to close, join to first dc. (d dc)
Round 2: Ch 1, 2 dc into the same st as joining and in each st around. Join to the first dc. (16 dc)
Round 3: Ch 1, *1 dc in the first st, 2 dc in the next st*,repeat around. Join to the first dc. (24 dc)
Round 4: Ch 1, *1 dc in next 2 sts, 2 dc in the next st* repeat around. Join to the first sc. (32 dc)
Round 5: Ch 1, in back loop only, dc in each st around. Join to the first dc. (32 dc)
Round 6 – 10: Ch 1, dc in each st around, join to the first dc. (32 dc) Cut yarn, weave in ends. 

Next is the top of the pot. You can make this soil or moss coloured as this is what you will be sewing the leaves into
