Instructions:
Start by shaping your Dollar Tree wreath form a bit more oblong.
- Securely knot a loop of chunky yarn at the wreath form's top.
- Begin chain stitching by feeding your knitting needle through the yarn loop, guiding the yarn under the first section, and pulling through to continue.
- Keep creating chain stitches around the wreath, alternating between the wreath's inner and outer edges.
- Should you spot any gaps, fill these in with additional chain stitches that loop through preceding stitches.
- After layer one of chain stitching, initiate a second layer by looping the yarn under the wreath frame.
- Employ a zigzag pattern through the wreath frame by weaving back and forth through previous stitch loops.
Repeat this process until the entire wreath form is cozily covered in yarn.
- For the owl's body, affix a 10-inch wreath form behind the larger one with zip ties.
- Use steps 7 through 9 to envelop this smaller wreath form in chain stitches.
- Circle the wreath center with a chain of stitches to form the owl's head.
- Fill this central area with half double crochet or double crochet stitches.
- Neatly secure your work by fastening off the yarn and tucking in any loose ends.
Fashion the owl's eyes, stomach, and beak from vinyl or felt.
- Attach these pieces to the wreath using either glue or zip ties.
- Create the illusion of feet with craft leaves or branches, securing them at the wreath's base.
- Finally, personalize your owl wreath with any additional embellishments, like feathers or bows.
Finishing:
Add any additional details, such as feathers or bows, to your owl wreath.
Hang your wreath on your door or another desired location.
