If so, the step by step pattern and tutorial for "Poinsettia Crocheted in-the-round",
 complete with videos can be purchased at Etsy here.

And the wreath can be made like this:

 First acquire heart form.
I ordered mine from Amazon here.

Then sc the width and length of heart,


sew sc strip onto heart like this:

It should/could l look like this.

Add some wire to hang it:
Or it can be hung from the bow:

Crochet bow with two rows of ss to desired length:
And place poinsettias and bow in desired position with straight pins,
this gives the wreath a lot of flexibility to change and even change with the seasons!
I found straight pins with yellow heads for the poinsettias and a red one for the bow.
The lighting is not good in this photo; however, I hung mine in the middle of a boxwood wreath above some little wood stabburs on our book shelf.

This project was made with the beautiful
 cotton blend Tilda Yarn from My Rose Valley.

Happy Season All!
