This pattern includes instructions on how to make the soldier and poppies, how to make the wreath cover (to fit any sized wreath base) as well as how to assemble the finished wreath.

This pattern is written in English using American crochet terms and contains photos to help you every step of the way. All of my patterns have been independently tested prior to publication.

You will need:
• Yarn in a colour of your choice for the wreath cover. The pattern will explain how to make the wreath cover the correct size in any weight yarn - I used 127m of chunky yarn (this is equivalent to bulky / weight 5 yarn).

• Aran weight yarn for the soldier and poppies (this is equivalent to worsted / weight 4 yarn).
You will need the following colours:

• Khaki (approx. 55m).
• Your choice of skin tone (approx. 18m).
• Brown(approx. 3m).
• Black (approx. 17m).
• Red (approx. 27m).

Please note = The amount of yarn used will vary according to yarn weight, hook size and stitch tension so these measurements are only a rough guide.

You will also need:

• Suitable sized hooks for the yarn you have chosen - I used a 5mm hook with the chunky yarn (for the wreath cover) and a 4mm hook with the aran yarn (for the soldier and poppies).

• A 25 cm flat-backed polystyrene / styrofoam wreath base.

• Toy stuffing

• A pair of 6mm black safety eyes.

• A tapestry needle (the longer, the better).

• You may find it useful to have some long nosed pliers (for pulling the needle through the wreath).

• Other tools you will need are some scissors and some pins.
