How to crochet a plarn planter for healthy roots

Step 5 Plant and enjoy

Use a moisture-retaining compost mix so the pot doesn't dry out too fast. You can plant directly into the pot - no need to add any kind of liner or drainage aid such as pebbles.

Because it's so light, this pot works great as a hanging basket or tied to a balcony railing. You'll also get the full benefit of the holes that way!
