🌹 Crochet Potted Flower Pattern – Easy Rose in a Pot for Beginners

Hello, it’s me Abinisha!
Today, I’ll show you how to crochet a beautiful rose in a pot using a simple, beginner-friendly method. 🌿🌸 Whether you’re making it as a gift, home decor, or just for fun, this rose pot adds a charming handmade touch to any space.

I used a mix of acrylic and cotton yarn for a soft yet structured finish. A flower rod and silver wire help keep the stem and leaves sturdy and poseable.

🧶 Materials Needed:

• Beige yarn (cotton or acrylic) – for the pot
• Brown yarn – for the soil
• Green cotton yarn – for stem and leaves
• Red cotton yarn – for the rose
• 2.5 mm crochet hook
• Fiberfill (stuffing)
• Flower rod
• Silver wire (for shaping leaves)

✨ Abbreviations:

• Mg – Magic ring
• Sc – Single crochet
• Dc – Double crochet
• BLO – Back loop only
• FLO – Front loop only

Step 1: Crochet the Pot

Let’s start with the base of the pot.

• Round 1: Mg, 8 sc (8). Sl st to first sc, ch 1
• Round 2: Inc in each stitch around (16). Sl st, ch 1
• Round 3: (Sc in next, inc) around (24). Sl st, ch 1
• Round 4: (Sc in next 2, inc) around (32). Sl st, ch 1
• Round 5: (Sc in next 3, inc) around (40). Sl st, ch 1

• Round 6: BLO – Sc around (40). Sl st, ch 1
• Rounds 7–12: Sc in each stitch around (40). Sl st, ch 1
• Round 13: (Sc in next 3, dec) around (32). Sl st, ch 1
• Round 14: FLO – Skip 1 st, 4 dc in next st, ch 1, skip 1, sl st in next st. Repeat around.

➡️ Once you’ve finished the top edging, fasten off and weave in all ends.

🌱 Step 2: Crochet the Soil

Next, let’s make the soil that sits inside the pot.

• Using brown yarn, repeat Rounds 1–5 from the pot instructions.

✅ Finish off. This will help support the stem later on.

🌹 Step 3: Crochet the Rose Flower

Now it’s time to make the rose!

• Round 1: Chain 23. Starting in the second chain from the hook, work 22 sc.
• Round 2: Turn. Ch 5, dc in the same stitch.
  Then: [Skip 2 stitches, (dc, ch 2, dc) in next stitch]. Repeat 12 times. Dc in the last stitch.
• Round 3: Ch 3, dc in same stitch, ch 2, 2 dc in same stitch.
  Next: [Skip 2 stitches, (2 dc, ch 2, 2 dc) in next stitch]. Repeat 12 times.
• Round 4: Ch 3. Then (8 dc, sl st) in each petal space 12 times. End with 13 dc in the last petal.

🌟 At this point, your rose should have a beautiful spiral bloom shape.

Step 4: Make the Flower Base

To support the rose, we’ll now crochet the base.

• Round 1: Start with a magic ring. Ch 2 (counts as dc), then work 19 more dc (20 total). Sl st to join.
• Round 2: Ch 11, sl st in 2nd ch from hook, 2 sc, 2 hdc, 3 dc, 2 tr.
  Skip 3 stitches on the base, then repeat this 5 times total.

💡 This gives your rose base some decorative leafy curls.

🍃 🍃 Step 5: Crochet the Leaves (Make 2)

Let’s make the poseable leaves to complete your rose.

• Step 1: Start with a slipknot, then ch 8
• Step 2: Insert the silver wire now — gently slide it through the foundation chain
  This gives structure to your leaf while allowing you to shape it later.
• Step 3: Work the first side of the leaf:
  • Sc in 2nd ch from hook
  • Hdc in next
  • Dc in next two chains
  • Hdc in next
  • Work 3 sc in the last chain
• Step 4: Continue on the other side of the chain:
  • Hdc, dc in next two, hdc, sc, then sl st to complete the shape
• Step 5: For the border, ch 2, then sc in each stitch around the entire leaf
  This adds a clean, slightly ruffled edge and secures the wire inside.

🧷 Finally, twist the two ends of the silver wire together to form a poseable stem. Shape the leaf naturally by bending it slightly.

🧵 Step 6: Assemble Your Crochet Flower Pot

Now that all the pieces are ready, let’s bring them together.

1. Prepare the Pot Base:
   First, cut a round piece of cardboard to fit the bottom of your pot. This adds support and helps it stand upright.
2. Add Fiberfill:
   Next, place the cardboard inside and lightly stuff the pot with fiberfill to give it shape.
3. Insert the Soil:
   Then, position the crocheted soil piece on top of the fiberfill. Adjust it so it fits snugly. You can sew or glue it down for extra stability.
4. Insert the Rose Stem:
   After that, push the flower rod through the center of the soil and down into the fiberfill. Make sure it’s upright and secure—add glue at the base if needed.
5. Attach the Rose Flower:
   Now, sew or glue the rose head to the top of the stem carefully.
6. Add the Leaves:
   Finally, wrap the leaves around the stem where you want them. Twist gently or sew in place. Then shape the leaves to make them look natural.
7. Finishing Touches:
   To complete your project, fluff the rose petals and adjust the leaves. Optionally, you can decorate the pot with a ribbon or tag for a charming look.
