Easy Apple Wreath
"How to crochet an easy and simple apple themed wreath perfect as Fall, classroom and Farmhouse decor. It even works for a kids room or baby shower that is farm themed! You'll need worsted weight yarn for this wreath - I used Red Heart Super Saver in Cherry Red, Coffee and Tea Leaf, but Caron One Pound and Bernat Super Value are good alternatives. You'll also need a 12" styrofoam wreath base, and either hot glue or a sewing pin. I worked this wreath up in about two and a half hours."
