Notes

Started with H hook and thought it was too tight so switched to J after 4 or 5 rounds. Added wooden beads for accents… Love it - can’t wait to make more.

Found the Jute at wal mart in near the rope section by the hooks/automotive/house hold tools area… It says SecureLine Gardening Jute Twine - 190 ft. I used one entire green ball and one entire natural ball. I used about half the second ball of natural. I did the number of rounds specified without increasing the rounds since I had a small plant pot. I did 16 rows for the hangers. Rather than just attached the metal ring, I single crocheted into the ring all the way around until the entire ring was covered.

As you can see per the last picture, I decided to add a tassel at the bottom…
