Crochet Wreath Pin, Tree Ornament, or Package Decoration
The wreath is really green,
but the scanner wouldn't pick it up in the right color. If using for an ornament use red, white and green variegated yarn
in place of the green as the green does not show up well on the tree.

weight yarn -less the 1/8 oz. About 3 yards of red worsted weight yarn.
Size F Crochet hook. Small plastic ring appoximately
2" in diameter. These can be taken from one gallon milk, water or orange juice jugs that still have them that come off as
one piece. Otherwise use the lightest and narrowest carbone ring that you can find.
Guage: Not important
Rnd
1: With Green yarn make a loop on the hook and insert hook in the center of ring. Work 28 sc or as many as it takes to cover
the ring. The more the better. Ch 1. Do not turn.
Rnd 2: Work 3 sc in each sc around. Join with a sl st in ch 1. End
off.
Bow
With red yarn ch 25. End off. From the back side of wreath pull the red ch between the posts of 2
sc. Now do the same with the other side, pulling between the next one to the left. Tie in a bow.
For pin: Attach a
very small safety pin on back.
For ornament: Attach a hook to the top or make a loop with a sting of yarn.
