Crochet Valentine’s Day Wreath
I found this awesome wood scalloped heart for only 99 cents at Michaels the other day and knew it would look perfect all wrapped in yarn! I love that it came with a hanging loop so it would be ready to hang up when I was all done as a wreath.
To start my project I used Lion Brands Vanna’s Choice yarn in Scarlet, White, Silver Heather, and Linen.
Adorable Valentine’s Day Wreath for Your Homemade of Yarn!
To start:
Being by wrapping your first yarn color and switch colors when you get a fourth of the way around.
I used a method found at Ewe Ewe Yarns called the magic knot to join my yarn colors when I was wrapping which I found very useful.
Seriously, check out the magic knot method!! You will be happy you did!
Finishing: After you have wrapped the entire heart fasten off the yarn and tuck in ends securely.
You could do all one color or change to whatever color you are feeling at the moment for your creation.
Now you are ready to hang up your new heart decoration wherever you choose! I personally think this would look great on a front entry door (interior) or in an entryway.
On a side note when I was starting my project Sam (my 3 year old) accidentally broke the heart right in the center where the two points meet which worked out perfectly. It was only because it made it 100% easier to wrap the yarn around the heart. Thanks, Sam! 🙂 You could break yours if you want.. It’s up to you!
