Scott got a hoya earlier this year, and it is about time to transplant it into a larger pot. He wants to be able to hang it in the window to get plenty of light — so I’m making a basket to hold the plant.<\/p>\n

The main part of the planter is 16x 18 feet strands that will be folded in half an arranged as four sets of four strands. Additionally, I need a 6.5 foot strand to wrap the hanging loop and another three foot section for gathering at the base of the loop. Wow, it takes a lot<\/em> of cord to make a plant hanger.<\/p>\n

Hanging loop followed by four groups knotted as: 7″ of spiral knot, 4.5″ straight then single knot, and
\n10″ of square knot. Then the groups will be changed to form a diamond shaped net that will hold our planter.<\/p>\n

I got all of the cords cut, taped off the ends so they don’t fray, and am starting to make the hanging loop.<\/p>\n

Since this is such a huge pile of strings, I grouped the strings that will be knotted together. Once they were grouped, I coiled each group up and used a bread time to hold the coil. I’ve still got a big pile of strings, but only the four I am actively working on are eight feet of hanging strands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
