Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Making the Pot

1. Row 1: Begin with a magic ring. Make 8 single crochets into the ring. Pull the yarn tightly and make a slip stitch into the first stitch to close the round. Chain one to start Row 2.
2. Row 2: Make an increase in each stitch by crocheting two single crochets into every stitch (total: 16 stitches). Slip stitch to join and chain one.
3. Row 3: Alternate between one single crochet and one increase (two single crochets in the same stitch) to create a total of 24 stitches. Slip stitch to join and chain one.
4. Row 4: Alternate between two single crochets and one increase, repeating this pattern for a total of 32 stitches. Slip stitch to join and chain one.
5. Row 5: Work all single crochets in the back loops only for 32 stitches. Slip stitch to join and chain one.
6. Row 6–11: Work one single crochet in both loops across all stitches (32 stitches per row). Repeat for six rows.
7. Row 12: Work one single crochet in front loops only for all stitches (32 stitches). Slip stitch to join and chain one.
8. Row 13: Work one single crochet in both loops for all stitches (32 stitches). Slip stitch to finish. Chain one, fasten off, and weave in your ends.

2. Making the Soil

1. Row 1: Start with a magic ring and make 8 single crochets into it. Tighten the loop but leave a small hole in the center.
2. Rows 2+: Work in rounds to create the soil, following a similar increase pattern as the pot. Leave a long yarn tail after finishing the soil for sewing it to the pot.

3. Making the Tulip Buds

1. Row 1: Start with a magic ring and crochet 6 single crochets into the ring. Pull tightly to close the loop and mark the last stitch with a stitch marker.
2. Row 2: Make an increase in every stitch (total: 12 stitches).
3. Row 3: Alternate between one single crochet and one increase (total: 18 stitches).
4. Row 4: Alternate between two single crochets and one increase (total: 24 stitches).
5. Rows 5–10: Work one single crochet in each stitch across all rows (24 stitches per row).
6. Finish: Slip stitch into the next stitch, chain one, and fasten off. Leave a long tail for sewing and stuff the tulip bud with fiberfill.

4. Making the Leaves

1. Prepare Wire: Use a 16 cm piece of wire for each leaf.
2. Row 1: Start with a slip knot and make 12 chains.
3. Crochet Over Wire: Place the wire along the working yarn and crochet into the chains.
   • Make 1 single crochet in the second chain from the hook.
   • Follow with 7 half-double crochets.
   • Finish with 3 single crochets at the tip and chain two into the last stitch for a rounded edge.
4. Work Back on the Opposite Side:
   • Crochet single crochets into three chains, then 7 half-double crochets, and finish with 1 single crochet in the last chain.
5. Fasten Off: Slip stitch, chain one, and cut the yarn. Wrap remaining yarn around the wire for a neat finish. Make two leaves for your tulip pot.

5. Assembling the Tulip Flowers

1. Prepare Stem: Cut a 10 cm wire and apply glue. Wrap green yarn around the wire to create the stem.
2. Attach Flower Buds: Insert the wire into the center of the tulip bud, securing it with glue.
3. Combine Flowers and Leaves:
   • Wrap the yarn for about 5 cm down the first stem. Attach the second flower and leaves using glue and yarn.
   • Continue wrapping the yarn around the stems to secure.

6. Final Assembly

1. Stuff the pot and sew the soil to the edges.
2. Insert the finished tulip stems into the center hole of the soil.
3. Add a final round of glue at the base for stability.

Tutor’s Suggestions and Tips
