I wanted to create an Easter wreath decoration that captures the reason we really celebrate Easter.

This pattern incorporates the Easter cross, blossoms and daffodils, all in springtime, pastel shades.

It is written in both UK and US terminology and uses DK / light worsted cotton yarn, and a 4mm/ G-6 crochet hook. I used Hobbii 8/8 yarn and the pattern includes a full list of the colours I used. Any DK yarn would work just as well.

The pattern requires less than 50g of 8 colours, plus 80g of the ‘nude’ colour.

You will need a 25cm polystyrene wreath base (available online or in craft shops). A glue gun is helpful, but pieces can be sewn onto the wreath too.
