Zemyna Plant Hanger

When Liz started running out of room for all of her potted plants, she had to come up with something to be able to keep adding more greenery to her home. This plant hanger after the Lithuanian goddess of the Earth and protector of nature. Inspired by macrame plant hangers, the Zemyna Plant Hanger was born. It is functional, durable, and of course attractive!
Pattern Description

Andra Tutto Bene Trivet
By Rebekas Haas Crochet
Inspiration
This crochet trivet is inspired by the knit Home Sweet Home Trivet from Cuddle Bunny Knits. Like most of Rebekah’s designs, it is named after something that reminds her of her upbringing in Italy. While the style reminds her of the traditional row houses one might find in Italy, the phrase “andra tutto bene” translates to “all will be well”.
Pattern Description
This pattern calls for super bulky yarn. Depending on the wear your trivet will take, you may consider non-acrylic fibers to prevent heat damage. This pattern employs some basic color work, but works up super quick with the extra thick yarn.

Final Thoughts
I hope you love all these crochet patterns as much I do. And I hope you found something here that inspires you. While our mother’s most certainly deserve endless time for gifts, we are often pulled in several directions in our day-to-day lives. Hopefully, you can gift your mother with something special this year!
