Crochet Spring Wreath

April 13, 2013 by AllFreeCrochet

Hi, I’m Tania from Little Things Blogged. Admittedly the weather outside does not remind us of spring. Indoors though spring has definitely made its appearance, since we are all enjoying spring related crochet crafts. So what better way to welcome this season with a simple yet colorful spring crochet wreath, embellished with flowers and an amigurumi bee! Read on to find out how to make your very own crochet spring wreath!

Crochet Spring Wreath

Crocheted Spring Wreath

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

Amount of time: Approx 8-10 hours

 

Materials:

For the spring wreath:

  • Styrofoam wreath (any size)
  • Yarn color of your choice
  • 4mm (G) hook
  • Yarn needle

For the crochet flowers:

  • Yarn in various colors
  • 4mm (G) hook
  • Yarn needle

For the amigurumi bee:

  • Yarn in yellow, black and white
  • 3mm (E) hook
  • 6 mm Amigurumi eyes
  • Fiberfill stuffing
  • Yarn needle

For the leaf garland:

  • Yarn in green
  • 4mm (G) hook

Instructions:

Wreath:

Measure your Styrofoam wreath’s outer circle. Mine measured approx. 70cm (28 inches) long. The area between the outer and the inner circle measured approx. 8 cm (3 inches) wide.

Now you have to crochet a piece that will fold around your wreath.

My piece was made as follows:

Ch 21

R1: sc in second ch from hook and in each st across (20)
Continue until your piece is long enough to fold around your wreath.
Now, you will have to fold your piece around the wreath and using a yarn needle, sew it onto the wreath.

 

Flowers: Using color of your choice

For small flower:

Ch2
R1: 6sc in second chain from hook (6)
R2: attach new color,* ch3 (counts as first dc), 2 dc, sl st in next st, rep from* around 4 times. Fasten off.

For large flower:

Ch2
R1: 6sc in second chain from hook (6)
R2:form petals, *ch6 and sl st to center* rep from* around 4 times
R3: *ch1 and sc, hdc, 3dc, hdc, sc, sl st* rep from* around 4 times.

Make as many as you want.

Amigurumi Bee:

The bee demands you know how to switch from one color to another. To change colors, crochet to the last stitch on the row. Start the last stitch by inserting the hook into the chain from the previous row and pulling a loop through. Now, with the new color, finish the single crochet by bringing a loop through the 2 stitches on the hook.

Using yellow:

Ch2
R1: 6 sc in second ch from hook (6)
R2: 2 sc in each st around (12)
R3: 1 sc , 2 sc in next st, repeat 6 times (18)
R4: sc in each st around (18)
Change to black
R5-6: sc in each st around (18)
Change to yellow
R7: sc in each st around (18)
Change to black
R8-9: sc in each st around (18)
Change to yellow, add eyes and start to stuff
R10:1 dec, 1 sc, repeat 6 times (12)
Change to black
R11:6 dec, (6)
Continue to stuff
R12-13: sc in each st around (6)
Fasten off and weave in ends.
Embroider a mouth using red thread.

Wings, make two:

Using white, Ch2
R1: 6 sc in second ch from hook (6)
R2: 1 sc, 2 sc in next st repeat two times (9)
R3-7: sc in each st around (9)
Fasten off, fold in half and sew on the bee.

Leaf garland:

Using green ch 100 and fasten off.

 

Now that you have everything in place it’s time to sew your flowers, your amigurumi bee and your garland onto the wreath. Choose the place you want everything to be and sew each item on the wreath. Add a ribbon so that you can hang your wreath up.

Enjoy your spring crochet wreath! Have you made anything for spring?
