Full Etsy listing description
Give your leafy corner a cheerful new look! Moss & Meadow is a textured knitted plant-pot sleeve with cream edges, mustard bands and a moss-coloured centre. Choose the contrasting borders or make a simple single-colour version to match your favourite shelf. Work one rectangle flat in seed stitch, then join the short side edges with one seam. The sleeve stays open at the top and bottom. Three written sizes suit straight-sided outer pots with circumferences of approximately 30, 39 and 50 cm, with cosy heights of 8, 10 and 12 cm. A measuring guide and worked example explain custom dimensions. Digital download: one colourful 6-page A4 PDF in English with complete written rows, knit-and-purl explanations, texture diagrams, seam guidance and care notes. Use smooth Aran cotton and start with 5 mm needles. Suitable for knitters comfortable with casting on, knitting and purling. Images show design illustrations and construction schematics. Remove the cosy before watering.

A little practical help

What do I need for Moss & Meadow?

Be comfortable with casting on, knitting and purling. The pattern uses Aran cotton, is knitted flat and suggests starting with 5 mm needles. Read the gauge and measuring instructions before choosing one of the three written sizes.

Can the plant-pot cosy stay on when I water?

Remove the cosy before watering. It is a decorative sleeve, not a waterproof container. Follow the care guidance for your yarn and the finished project.
