Back in the 70s these were everywhere, but not so readily available now. As a fast way to get a pot hanging, I've started doing some simple ones. I have a question for any of you that might make these. I've looked on the net, but can't find a guideline for the length of cord or the placement of the knots that will correspond to the size/shape of the container. Can someone help? Here's one I made with some sisal rope this week.
I edited this to show how it looks now. The photo on the right was taken 6/14. The container is hanging in the same place and the old galvanized trough is still behind it, though the angle and distance aren't the same. You really don't notice the sisal sling with the Mandevilla trying to take up all the air space.
