Patriotic Yarn Flag Wreath
In case I haven’t mentioned it lately, I really have the most amazing customers. Last week one of them emailed me asking if I could make her a wreath for Memorial Day that is coming up here in the U.S. I said, of course! And from that request came this Patriotic Yarn Flag Wreath.
The wreath is an 18 inch base. It uses three skeins of yarn, one each in red, white, and blue.
I began with finger knitting. Holding three strands of yarn together at a time I finger knit each color of yarn (you can see my finger knitting tutorial here).
I wrapped the blue finger knit yarn around the base first, covering approximately 1/4 of the wreath. Then I divided the rest of the wreath into 7 sections and alternated wrapping the red and white around.
The stars are white wooden stars that are hot glued to the blue yarn.
If you would like to purchase a pre-made wreath you can find them in my shop HERE.
Soooooo cute! I love this. I have ZERO craft skills, but you got it going on!!!!!!! 🙂
Thanks, Nicole! It’s fun when what you envision turns out better than you thought it would 🙂
You make it sound like something I could actually accomplish! The colors really pop. 🙂
Thanks, Melissa! And I bet you could make it! Of course if you want to pay me to make one that’s completely acceptable as well 😉
Oh My Gosh! I LOVE this wreath!
Thanks, Jennifer! I’m pretty sure I’ll be making another one for myself soon
