Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Base Wreath

1. Using the forest green yarn, create a magic ring. To do this, wrap the yarn around your fingers and pull through to form a loop.
2. Round 1: Work 6 single crochet (sc) into the magic ring. Pull the tail of the yarn to tighten the ring.
3. Round 2: Increase by placing 2 sc in each sc around. You should now have 12 sc.
4. Continue increasing evenly in the following rounds until the piece measures 18 inches in diameter. You can do this by adding 6 additional sc in each round (e.g., Round 3: 18 sc, Round 4: 24 sc, etc.) until you reach the desired diameter.
5. Once you have reached 18 inches, work even (no increases) for 5 rounds to form the wreath base.

2. Snowflake Motifs

2. Round 1: Work 6 sc into the magic ring. Pull the tail to tighten.
3. Round 2: *Chain (ch) 3, slip stitch (sl st) in the next sc*; repeat from * around. This will create the points of the snowflake.
4. Fasten off and weave in ends. Make 6-8 snowflakes to decorate your wreath.

3. Assembly

1. Using the silver yarn, attach the snowflakes to the wreath base. Space them evenly around the wreath to create a balanced look.
2. Weave in all ends securely to ensure your wreath is neat and tidy.

4. Hanging Loop
