LOOM KNIT CHRISTMAS WREATH

Use this wreath as a napkin ring and send it home with your guests as a gift...


This morning when I woke up I started thinking about ways to make my holiday table special and got an idea for a loom knit napkin ring that could also double as an ornament.  The picture above is what I came up with.  I'm very pleased that It worked out on the first try and it was a pretty easy knit.  I think the hardest part was putting the wire on the wreath and not stabbing myself repeatedly with it!  I hope you like this pattern and it works well for you!
