The list of characters on this pattern include, Snowman, Fairy, Gnomes and an Elf and also the directions to knit a cover for the polystyrene ring . I have included a few extras which can be used to decorate the finished wreath, leaves and flowers.

They are knitted flat, mostly as one piece from the feet up to the head. The arms and ears are knitted separately. I have included a comprehensive making up guide full of photos to help you.

At first I was thinking these would be nice for children’s bedroom doors at Christmas. And then I thought perhaps they would be idea as children’s room decorations. You can play with different adornments, perhaps a tooth fairy or springtime or autumn time themes? The choices are endless. Sort out your stash of fancy yarns and left over decorations.

I have used double knit/light weight worsted or 8 ply (depending on where you are) for both the characters and the ring covers.

I used flat back polystyrene 25cm diameter rings. You can use any size you wish of course but you will need to adjust the cover to fit. The covers need to stretch fit or they will sag. I have included a guide in the directions.

I hope you have fun with this pattern and decorating your finished wreath.
