Super quick ~ Super easy
You can make a stack of gift tags to decorate your packages in very little time.
Tiny Crochet Wreath
I used worsted weight acrylic yarn for the white wreaths and cotton for the ecru wreaths with a G hook
chain 6
Join with slip st in 1st chain to form circle
Ch 1
15-17 (depending how tight you want your wreath) single crochets in ring
Slip st in first sc
Finish off
Knot ends and cut away extra yarn.
Add tiny ribbon bow. (I used fabric glue but hot glue would work too)
Attach to a folded piece of card stock and you're finished :)
Instead of making tags...
Add a tiny pin to back to wear on clothing
Add a loop and hang as an ornament

What a cute idea. And so simple. Thanks for sharing the pattern.
Super cute...great ideas!
Hmmm....these are very cute. Maybe even this non-crocheting person could learn how to make these!
I have a lone list things I'd love to crochet. starting with osmething simple like these sweet tags might be an encouraging way for me to begin.
I wish I knew how to crochet. These are so cute. Pinning, in case I learn someday :)
Simple! Cute! Love it! Handmade can be so easy and quick. I am definitely gonna get to work on making sure that 2012 is a handmade year! Happy holidays! Tammy
Lovely cards...such a clever idea
And super cute!
These are darling and now that I'm on Pinterest I want to pin these and save them for next Christmas. By then I will surely have had time to learn crochet.
Have a beautiful Christmas with your family!
Beautiful and elegant!LDH
Merry Christmas to you and your dear family.

Beautiful idea, Lorraine! Your wreath tags are adorable!
This is a pretty decoration/pin, Lorraine. My Mom has one in green that has a red ribbon bow, that she bought at a church fair many years ago. Now I'll be able to make a new one for her as a surprise!
Wishing you and your family a beautiful Christmas full of joys and blessings!
