Summer means sandal season! Greet your guests with this Crochet Flip Flop Welcome Wreath
Do you look forward to the changing of seasons? For some, the end of the school year might feel bittersweet. Others may be rushing to start summer vacations.
As the weather gets warmer our outfits change. Gone are the boots and coats from winter. Even closed toe shoes, pants, and long sleeved shirts and getting pushed aside for more warm weather appropriate attire.
Specifically? Flip flops. Is there any shoe that is more iconic for summer weather? Whether you’re wearing them to the beach, the pool, or even to the grocery store, sandals are a summer footwear staple.
What better way to welcome summer, and sandal wearing season, with a fun and silly Flip Flop Welcome Wreath.
Crochet Flip Flop Welcome Wreath Supplies
- Wire breath base
- White yarn for finger knitting base
- Cotton worsted weight yarn
- Jute yarn
- Welcome bunting
This Flip-Flop Welcome wreath starts with a finger knitting Flip-Flop Welcome Wreath for the front door felt appropriate.
You can see my finger knitting tutorial here. It’s easy to finger knit the yarn, wrap it around the wire frame, and then have a wreath base you can reuse over and over! Just updating it for each season.
The next step is to crochet the flip flops. I made two different sizes/types of flip flops. One type is made with jute yarn for the soles, the other with worsted weight yarn. String the flip flops with some string and attach them to your finger-knit wreath base.
