While searching for crocheted wreaths, I’ve run across some other crochet beauties. Gotta share these.

First is a fantastic crocheted ring from this blog – the crocheted one on the right:

Plus, this set of wreaths is to be found on the same blog:

cro-wreath-5-0809 As I wrote the other day, I don’t think I’d need a pattern to create these wreaths or something similar. Why not pull out some yarn, glue, and small ornaments and other components and whip up one of these. The ring looks to be more complex… The blog these are on is charming. Please check it out:

Another blog has this cute mini-wreath with good instructions for making it from recycled wool sweaters. Another idea would be to use up your wool swatches – felt them and follow the instructions to create your own beauty:

I’m always on the look-out for ideas that incorporate crochet with other crafts, especially those that use recycled materials. If you make or find one, please send me a link.

PS – PSST!! This cute wreath was just posted on August 10, 2009. Had to share:
