    Thank you Rebecca for sharing this tutorial! Followed along as you did it – you are a great instructor! Benefited from the trouble shooting advice as my hook did accidently come out. And yes, it was in the wrong way. Thank you again!

      As I mentioned in the video, I used Chunky Knit, a jumbo sized yarn from Yarn Bee (Hobby Lobby).

        Hi Rebecca Can you tell me how many skeins of hobby lobby yarn I need to make the wreath?

    Wondering if the yarn is white or ivory? Can’t decide on color! Thank you.

      Ivory 🙂

    I can’t get the video to play.

      It was probably just your connection at the time. The video is hosted on YouTube, so unless YouTube is down, it’s usually a connectivity issue.

    Is there no written pattern for the wreath?

    Reply
    • yarnandchai says: November 23, 2019 at 8:20 am

      It would just say “slip stitch around the wreath.” 🙂 It’s really more of a technique than an actual pattern.

    Love this; just made my first one. Rebecca, how did you attach the ornaments?

    Reply
    • rebecca says: October 25, 2019 at 9:00 am

      I tied the string of the ornament around one of the threads of yarn at the top, and for the stars, I used craft gorilla glue 🙂

    Can’t get your video to play. Are you having a problem with the website?

    Hi there. I love this wreath and would love to be able to do it but have never been able to follow a video. Do you have a written pattern?

    Love your work!!

      Hi Kerry! It’s not really a pattern, it’s a technique. The pattern would just say “slip stitch around the wreath.” 🙂 It’s just that when you’re slip stitching around something that big, with big chunky yarn, it doesn’t feel natural so it’s hard to fee like you’re doing it right; that’s why I demonstrated on video.

        Thanks so much. I will give it a try!

    Did the one skein showing do the whole wreath?
    Thanks, Linda

    Reply
    • rebecca says: October 4, 2019 at 9:34 pm

      It only used about half the skein 🙂

    You could make smaller versions of these wreaths in purple & white to use as advent candle bases.

      What a great idea!

  13. Kristine says: September 22, 2019 at 4:27 pm

    Would you please explain on your videos that this is right-handed? I have been crocheting for years, but a newbie might be confused. I would be pointing the hook the opposite direction to start, for doing this left-handed.

    Hi Rebecca! The skein I am looking at is 43 yards (super chunky). Based upon your response above, do you think this will take 20 yards??!!

    Reply
    • rebecca says: September 22, 2019 at 2:22 pm

      Hi Maria! Unfortunately there’s no way for me to advise you on that, because as I said, it’s going to vary widely based on whatever yarn you use ?

    I like this chunky yarn idea! I’m looking forward to finding some chunky yarn to make this. Thank you.

    Where did you find the “believe” metal ornament?

    • Deborah says: September 21, 2019 at 4:37 pm

      Yes and the stars LOL

    • rebecca says: September 22, 2019 at 8:56 am

      Hi ladies! Both the “believe” ornament and the stars were from Hobby Lobby during last holiday season, so I’m not sure if they will be there or not this year. The stars, I spray painted with a metallic paint. 🙂

    About how much chunky yarn did you use? Love the wreath…….easy holiday decoration!!!

    • rebecca says: September 21, 2019 at 2:20 pm

      About half the skein, but that’s going to vary widely based on whatever yarn you use 🙂
