Section 1: Wreath
Part 1 – Large Wreath
Step 1: Pick up the large wreath ring and the first Ball of white loop yarn.
Step 2: Secure the end of the loop yarn with either a pin or glue to the wreath ring and wrap the loop yarn around the wreath form.
Step 3: Pass the whole roll through the wreath ring’s center and wrap the loop yarn around the ring. Secure the loop yarn with glue or pins at intervals and ensure a tight wrap.
¾ way through the large wreath, the 1st ball of loop yarn should be finished. Join a new ball with glue or make a knot with loops on each end of the yarn. Be sure the end is secured before continuing.
Continue to wrap the loop yarn until the end.
Cut off excess yarn and secure the end properly to the wreath ring.
Part 2 – Small
Step 1: Pick up the small wreath ring and the roll from the previous wreath.
Step 2: Secure the end of the loop yarn with either a pin or glue to the wreath ring and wrap the loop yarn around the wreath form.
Step 3: Pass the whole roll through the wreath ring’s center and wrap the loop yarn around the ring. Secure the loop yarn with glue or pins at intervals and ensure a tight wrap.
Continue to wrap the loop yarn until the end of the next roll; if you need another roll, join the next roll with either glue, knot, or overlap the next roll.
Secure the end properly to the wreath ring.
Please do not cut off excess yarn, as it will be used to join the two rings together.
To join the two rings
Pick up both rings and wrap the excess yarn around the two rings to secure both rings firmly.
