HOW TO MAKE THE HANGING PLANTER?

SIZE: 50 cm. 1. Hanger: Choose your own hanger or make one by braiding two 30cm strands and tying them at their ends to create a circular support. 2. Cut 12 pieces of Caricia Cordón, 1 meter each, and tie them, with a lark's head knot, to the circular support or the chosen hanger that will serve as a base for working. 3. Make an oblique cording, from left to right, with half of the mounted strands. Repeat the operation from right to left with the same inclination to the center. 4. Resume the diagonal from left to right, tying all the strands with the same inclination; then, always starting from the center, finish the cording from right to left. 5. Continue the body of the planter with square knots. In the first two rows and at a distance of 2.5cm, make alternating square knots, leaving the first two strands and the last two unused in the first row. Then, at 2.5cm, make a complete row of square knots starting from the first strand. To create a closed support and form a kind of basket, in the next row, make the first square knot with the first two strands and the last two, and continue the entire row with square knots. The next row of square knots will begin by tying the two strands to the right of the knot we made to close with the two strands to its right, and the two strands to the left of this knot with the two strands to its left. The row will continue with knots. The next two rows are made of alternating square knots. 6. To finish, tie all the ends with two of the strands and secure.
