Free Amigurumi Crochet Christmas Wreath
|
|
This Christmas Wreath pattern was originally issued as a Free crochet along at the end of 2022. As it's a larger project, it's broken down into three parts - click on the buttons below for each one. It's a great project for using up odds and ends from your yarn stash. The characters are quick, easy and fun to make - and also make great baubles to hang on your Christmas tree.
If you prefer working from a paper pattern, join the Chums Gang Mailing List HERE to access FREE Printable PDFs of all my free patterns!
The patterns all use basic amigurumi techniques and are quick and easy - I've created Photo Tutorials for any bits I think newer crocheters might not have done before. You can find the Photo Tutorials HERE.

What You'll Need
Yarn: I used 4 ply Scheepjes Catona Cotton - 125m per 50g. Each character needs about 30-40g - about 10g of which is the basic head shape for each. I used about 100g of the same yarn for the Wreath Cover and Hanging Loop. You may need slightly more or less depending on your natural tension or if you're using a different brand.
Colours: Red, Green, White, Blue, Yellow, Pale Beige, Brown, Orange, Black.

Hot Red (115) - 60 g approx
Apple Green (389) - 60 g approx
Snow White (106) - 50g approx
Capri Blue (261) - 50g approx
Yellow Gold (208) - 20g approx
Linen (505) - 30 g approx

Royal Orange (189) - less than 10 g (just for Snowman Nose)
Bet Black (110) - 10 g approx
Hook: I used a 2mm hook for the above yarn.
Wreath Ring: I used a 25cm diameter polystyrene craft ring - available from lots of sources online.
Other Kit: Pins, scissors and a yarn needle.
