☘️ Plant lady in training, knit edition

I’ve become that plant lady. Well, a plant lady in training. I’ve adopted ten new house plants over the last few months (let’s not talk about the ones that didn’t survive). I wanted to jazz up their containers, so I made this knit herringbone cozy.

It comes in three sizes and uses just 25 to 100 yds of bulky yarn, so it’s a quick way to dress up your pots.
