Christmas Wreath Applique by Cream Of The Crop Crochet
Today we have a quick Christmas wreath applique pattern for you. It’s a great stashbuster and the finished product can be used to applique anything from hats and scarves to kitchen linens and even gifts. Or, add a small hoop for hanging and use it on your tree.
The adorable applique pattern features a pretty bow along with some embroidered “cherries” for a cute Christmasy look. I like the embroidery, it’s quick and easy and cost effective. But, you could also add small beads and sequins if you want.
The Christmas applique is worked up in a medium worsted weight yarn using a 4 mm crochet hook. That makes it sturdier for use as an ornament or even a keychain.
