4 Crochet Daisy Vining Plant Free Patterns

There is something wonderfully satisfying about bringing a little greenery into your home without any of the watering, wilting, or worrying that comes with real plants. Crochet botanicals have become one of the most beloved niches in the fiber arts world, and for good reason. They are endlessly customizable, they never die, and they fill corners, shelves, and windowsills with color and texture in a way that feels genuinely alive. Among all the botanical crochet projects out there, the daisy vining plant stands out as a perennial favorite. The combination of cheerful daisy blossoms cascading down trailing vines creates something that looks both whimsical and surprisingly realistic, and the best part is that you can make your own without spending a single dollar on a pattern.

If you have been searching for free crochet daisy vining plant patterns that actually deliver beautiful results, you have come to the right place. Below you will find four distinct patterns, each with its own personality and level of complexity, so whether you are picking up a hook for the first time or you are a seasoned crocheter looking for a satisfying weekend project, there is something here for you. Each pattern includes all the details you need to get started, from materials to stitches to finishing tips, and all of them are completely free.

Before diving into the patterns, let’s talk briefly about what makes daisy vining plants such a popular crochet subject. The daisy is one of those universal flowers. Nearly everyone recognizes it, nearly everyone loves it, and it carries a lightness and joy that makes it the perfect decorative element. When you pair that cheerful blossom with a trailing vine, you create something that has genuine decorative impact. These pieces work beautifully in hanging baskets, draped over bookshelves, tucked into macramé wall hangings, or arranged in a ceramic pot to spill over a side table. They photograph beautifully, which makes them popular gifts and popular items for craft fairs and Etsy shops if you are someone who sells your work.

Now, let’s get into the patterns themselves.

Pattern 1: The Classic Trailing Daisy Vine

This first pattern is designed with beginners in mind. It uses only a handful of basic stitches and produces a long, lush trailing vine dotted with small white and yellow daisies. It is the kind of pattern you can pick up quickly and then work on while watching television or listening to a podcast, because once you get the rhythm down, it becomes wonderfully meditative.

Materials you will need:

You will want a worsted weight yarn in white, yellow, and green. Worsted weight is the most forgiving weight for beginners because it is substantial enough to see your stitches clearly but not so bulky that the finished piece looks cartoonish. A 5mm crochet hook works beautifully with most worsted weight yarns, but always check your yarn label and swatch if precision matters to you. You will also need a yarn needle for weaving in ends, scissors, and a small amount of polyfill or cotton batting if you want to lightly stuff your flowers for extra dimension.

The vine:

Begin with a foundation chain in green yarn. For a vine that trails about 24 inches, chain approximately 65 to 70 stitches, but you can make this as long or as short as you like. This is one of the beauties of this pattern — it scales easily.

Row 1: Starting in the second chain from the hook, single crochet in each chain across. Fasten off and weave in your ends. This gives you a simple, flat green rope that serves as your base vine.

To add texture and make the vine feel more organic, you can work a second row back across using slip stitches, pulling the yarn slightly tighter than feels natural. This will cause the vine to curl gently, mimicking the way real vines twist and turn.

Leaves:

Leaves are made separately and then attached to the vine at intervals. For each leaf, chain 10 in green. Single crochet in the second chain from the hook, single crochet in the next 3 chains, half double crochet in the next 2 chains, double crochet in the next 2 chains, then work 3 double crochets in the last chain for the rounded leaf tip. Now work back down the other side of the foundation chain by rotating your work: double crochet in the next 2, half double crochet in the next 2, single crochet in the last 4. Slip stitch to the beginning stitch to close and fasten off, leaving a long tail for attaching to the vine.

Make approximately 8 to 12 leaves per 24 inches of vine, attaching them at irregular intervals for a natural look.

Daisies:

For each daisy, start with yellow yarn and make a magic ring. Chain 1, then work 6 single crochets into the ring. Pull the ring closed and slip stitch to join. Fasten off the yellow but do not cut it yet — weave it in after the white petals are attached.

Join white yarn to any stitch. For each petal, chain 7, then single crochet in the second chain from the hook and in each remaining chain back toward the center (5 single crochets total), then slip stitch into the center ring to anchor the petal. Work one petal into each of the 6 center stitches. If you want fuller daisies, you can work a second round of petals offset slightly from the first, chaining 8 instead of 7 for a slightly longer back layer.

Fasten off and weave in ends. Attach each daisy to the vine by stitching through the back of the center ring and catching a stitch on the vine. Make 4 to 6 daisies per vine length and position them in clusters of 2 or 3 for a natural, gathered look.

Pattern 2: The Boho Daisy Garland Vine

This second pattern leans into a more maximalist aesthetic, perfect for bohemian home decor lovers. The daisies here are slightly larger and more detailed, the vine is thicker and more textured, and the overall effect is lush and dramatic. This pattern works particularly well in a macramé wall hanging or draped across a wooden dowel above a bed or couch.

Materials you will need:

For this pattern, reach for a DK weight yarn rather than worsted. DK gives you a slightly more delicate finished look while still being easy to work with. You will want white, cream (for the petals — the slight color variation adds beautiful depth), yellow or mustard, and two shades of green, a medium sage and a deeper forest green. A 4mm hook works well with DK weight. You will also need wire (thin floral wire works beautifully) if you want poseable daisies, though this is entirely optional.

The vine:

This vine uses a more textured stitch to mimic the look of a real plant stem. Begin with a foundation chain in your darker green. Chain as many stitches as you need for your desired length. Work a row of single crochets back across, then, without turning, work a row of slip stitches in the back loops only of the row you just completed. This back-loop technique creates a subtle ridge that adds texture. Change to your lighter sage green and work one more row of slip stitches. The color blending gives the vine a variegated, natural appearance.

Textured leaves:

These leaves are slightly more complex than the ones in Pattern 1. Chain 12 in your darker green. Single crochet in the second chain from the hook, then continue with half double crochets for 3 stitches, double crochets for 3 stitches, then 3 treble crochets in the last chain for the tip. Working back down the other side: treble crochet in 2, double crochet in 3, half double crochet in 3, single crochet in 2, slip stitch to close. Change to your lighter green and work one round of surface slip stitches along the center of the leaf for a midrib detail. This sounds fiddly but it takes only a moment and makes a significant difference in how realistic the leaves look.

The large daisies:

For the center, make a magic ring in mustard yellow, chain 3 (counts as first double crochet), then work 11 more double crochets into the ring for a total of 12. Join with a slip stitch and fasten off.

For the petals, join your cream yarn to any stitch. Chain 10, then work a single crochet in the second chain from the hook, single crochet in the next 7, slip stitch back into the ring. Repeat this for each of the 12 stitches around the center. Join your white yarn and work a second layer of petals between the cream petals by slip stitching into the spaces between petals and working chains of 9, then single crocheting back down and slip stitching to the center space. The two layers of slightly different lengths and two shades of white and cream create a truly beautiful, realistic daisy.

Make 5 to 8 of these larger daisies per vine and intersperse smaller simple daisies (using the method from Pattern 1) between them.

Pattern 3: The Cascading Daisy Wall Hanging

This third pattern is less of a simple vine and more of a full decorative installation. It combines multiple vine lengths attached to a single anchor point, creating a cascading waterfall of daisies that spills downward in overlapping layers. This is a more ambitious project but the result is genuinely stunning and makes a spectacular piece of wall art.

Materials you will need:

You will want several skeins of green in various shades, white, yellow, and any accent colors you love — pale pink daisies, lavender daisies, or even tiny orange daisies can add beautiful pops of color. A wooden dowel or a piece of driftwood serves as the anchor. You will need multiple lengths of green yarn or twine to hang the installation.

Construction:

Instead of one long vine, you will make 6 to 8 individual vines of varying lengths, ranging from about 12 inches to 36 inches. Use the basic vine construction from Pattern 1 for shorter vines and the textured vine from Pattern 2 for longer ones. Vary your shades of green across the vines so they do not all look identical.

Attach each vine to the dowel by folding the top 2 to 3 inches of the vine over the dowel and stitching it in place with your yarn needle. Arrange the vines so shorter ones sit to the outside and longer ones cascade from the center, creating an arched silhouette.

Leaves and daisies are made and attached as described in the previous patterns. For this installation, go generously with both — the impact of the piece depends on a sense of abundance. Aim for at least 15 to 20 daisies total across all the vines, and do not be afraid to cluster 3 or 4 together in some places.

Add a hanging cord to each end of the dowel and hang at your desired height. Step back and adjust any vines or flowers that need repositioning, bending wire-stemmed daisies into pleasing angles if you used wire in your construction.

Pattern 4: The Mini Potted Daisy Vine

This fourth and final pattern takes a different approach. Instead of a hanging vine, this pattern creates a compact, self-contained piece designed to sit in a small pot. It is the perfect project for adorning a windowsill, a bathroom shelf, or a desk, and it makes a wonderful gift because it is polished and self-contained without requiring any installation.

Materials you will need:

Use cotton yarn for this project rather than acrylic or wool. Cotton has a wonderful drape and a slight sheen that looks beautiful in a small-scale piece, and it holds its shape without blocking. A 3.5mm hook works well with most DK weight cotton yarns. You will also need a small pot — a terracotta pot between 2 and 4 inches wide is ideal — plus floral foam or a small amount of air-dry clay to anchor your vines inside the pot.

Construction:

Make 3 to 5 short vines of 8 to 15 inches each. These do not need to be uniform in length; in fact, the variety is part of what makes the finished piece look organic. Use the basic vine from Pattern 1 or the textured vine from Pattern 2 depending on your skill level and preference.

Push a piece of floral foam into your pot and cover the top surface with a small circle of green crochet: work a flat circle by making a magic ring, working 6 single crochets into the ring, then increasing every stitch on the next round, then increasing every other stitch on the next round. This gives you a neat green disc that tucks into the top of the pot and hides the foam.

Insert the bottom ends of your vines into the foam, pushing them in at slightly different angles so they splay outward naturally. You can add a small drop of craft glue to secure them if needed. Let the vines drape over the edges of the pot, arranging them asymmetrically for the most natural look.

Add daisies and leaves as described in the previous patterns, using slightly smaller versions than you would for a wall installation. For a 3-inch pot, daisies with petals of 5 chain stitches rather than 7 or 8 look best.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of These Patterns

A few final thoughts that apply to all four patterns above. First, do not stress too much about gauge. These are decorative pieces, not garments, so a centimeter here or there will not matter. Work at a tension that feels comfortable and produces fabric you find attractive.

Second, blocking can transform your finished pieces dramatically. Even a light misting with water and gentle reshaping while the yarn is damp will make your daisies look crisper and your leaves look more defined. Cotton yarn responds particularly well to blocking.

Third, consider adding small details that personalize your work. A tiny button sewn in the center of a daisy, a bead worked into the tip of a leaf, or a strand of golden thread woven through the vine can elevate a simple pattern into something that feels truly artisan.

Finally, these patterns are all free, which means you are welcome to make them for personal use or to give as gifts. If you sell items made from these patterns, a small acknowledgment in your shop listings is always a kind gesture to the broader crochet community that shares knowledge so generously.

Happy crocheting, and may your walls, shelves, and windowsills overflow with beautiful, everlasting daisy vines.
