Crocheted Ribbon Wreath
  

Use silky-looking "knitting ribbon" to make a loop-stitch cover for a styrofoam wreath form. Make the loops about 1" long (i.e., 2" of ribbon). This takes a lot of ribbon! - about 800 yards for a 14" ring. Shape a flat piece that’s just wider than the front of the wreath form, starting with the narrow end and crocheting until you reach the right length to fit snugly when the ends are sewn together. (You may want to make the piece a little larger on one long side by judiciously adding stitches here and there, to accommodate the greater circumference of the outer edge of the form. You’d place this side toward the outer part of the ring.) Sew the edges (that lap under the back of the ring) by zig-zagging across the back, using a heavy thread. Decorate with a few ornaments, perhaps, at the bottom of the wreath.
