Materials:

• Yarn/tapestry needle
• Scissors
• Measuring Tape
• Hot glue/craft glue
• Optional embellishments: ribbon, bells, glittery pom poms, pre-made bows, and other festive small items you can glue on to the wreath.

Sizing:

• Wreath is about 4 inches tall

Pattern Notes:

• Try experimenting with different yarn colors when you crochet the curlicues for a variety of looks, for example red and green, or green and white too!
• You can get really creative with the embellishments on your wreath, see materials list above for ideas.
• Can’t make a bow? No worries! Premade bows can be found in craft stores, sewing isles, etc.
• This pattern can also be slipped over a door knob (it fits, I tried it!) to dress up a door too.

Crochet Curlicue Wreath Ornament Pattern:

• Chain 45
• Work 3 hdc into the third chain from the hook.
• Work 3 hdc into each chain across.
• Fasten off and set aside.
• Make a second curlicue the same way and move on to the next section for assembly.
• Note: sometimes when making a crochet curlicue it can get a little twisted up as you work. You may need to straighten it out and “recoil” it before you move on.

Finishing & Assembly:

• Line up the two curlicues starting with the sides where the ends are and coil them together
• Wrap them into a circle and seam the ends together.
• Use one of the tails to make a hanging loop. Wrap the tail into a loop then knot to secure.
• Weave the rest of the tails in.
• If you like, you can glue various decorative items to the wreath. I made a simple red satin bow with a shiny gold bell glued to the center. Try a variety of embellishments (see materials list above for ideas) for lots of festive looks!
• Let all glue cool/dry completely before using.
• Happy holiday crocheting!
