Easter Loop Yarn Wreath

Loop yarn is a new type of yarn appearing in stores.  The loops make it easy to knit scarfs, cowls, afghans, and pillows without needles. What else can you do with the yarn besides knitting? Today, I would like to show you how to make a really, really simple Easter wreath.Spring Loop Yarn Wreath Facebook Ad

Easter Loop Yarn Wreath Tutorial - Supplies

INSTRUCTIONS :

The Big Twist Loopity Loops yarn in the sample project shown in this tutorial appears to be unavailable in 2022.  Any brand or color yarn can be used to make this wreath. 

See some options for loop yarn at the end of this article. Click on the links because each has many colors, including some variagated colors available.

You will need around 18 yards of loop yarn to make the 10" wreath. 

STEP 1:

Squirt a little all-purpose glue onto a paper plate.  I am using pins and glue to attach the yarn to the wreath because hot glue has a tendency to melt the Styrofoam and also release fumes.

STEP 2:

Easter Loop Yarn Wreath Tutorial Pin EndFind the end of the loop yarn and unwrap it a little.  Dip a pin into the glue and secure the end of the loop yarn to the wreath form with the pin.  To make sure it is firmly secure, repeat with another pin.

STEP 3:

Easter Loop Yarn Wreath Tutorial Line Up LoopsWrap the yarn around the wreath form by bringing the bundle of yarn through the wreath and around to the outside.  As you wrap, keep the loops facing out and the flat side against the wreath.  As you wrap scrunch the yarn together.

Easter Loop Yarn Wreath Tutorial Wrap Loops AroundWhen you wrap the yarn around the wreath 6 to 8 times, insert a glue-tipped pin to keep the yarn securely in place.

STEP 4:

Continue wrapping the yarn around and scrunching until the form is completely covered.

STEP 5:

Then, with a scissor cut off the excess yarn and with two glue-tipped pins, pin the end to the wreath form.

STEP 6:

Easter Loop Yarn Wreath Tutorial Flowers & EggsAfter the wreath is entirely wrapped, you can use it as-is or add any Easter embellish that you would like by hot-gluing them in place. You can use hot glue for this procedure because you are gluing to yarn, not the Styrofoam.

STEP 7:

To hang the wreath, just use a narrow ribbon.  The ribbon will disappear between the yarn loops.

For my Easter wreath, I used pastel colored loop yarn; however, this wreath can be made for other holidays and occasions by choosing a different yarn.

Have fun knitting with loop yarn!
