Crocheted Poinsettia

5 Comments

The iconic poinsettia plant is a common symbol of Christmas. This pretty plant also makes a great hostess gift for the holiday season. To make one that lasts year after year, this Crocheted Poinsettia is a great option for a homemade gift that can be used year after year. Plus, the leaves of poinsettia plants are poisonous to dogs, so it will be nice to have one that doesn't have to be kept away from Fido!

This project will quickly become a family heirloom. After all the effort placed into creating this floral arrangement of Poinsettia, I would hope all that admire it will appreciate its beauty. My holiday colors evolve around pink and I have seen white Poinsettia's tinted pink, so I think I will try it in a pale pink.

My Mother received a Poinsettia project years ago made with pipe cleaners. The flowers were wrapped around mini Christmas lights. I display it every year. I like this one and it may be displayed this year if I get a jump on it.

These are so pretty. I have always loved them. They also come in white. To solve the problem mentioned in a previous post, I have made them in varying sizes in heights. That way the spindly stems are covered. It came out perfect. I put a block of styrofoam in a pot and then wrapped it in gold foil. I put some moss on top. Presto!

These flowers look fairly real, but I think the way theyre presented, they look on the spindly side. It could be thats what poinsettias looked like when the pattern was created. Now were used to seeing bushier versions. In addition, the pattern calls for using #10 steel hooks. Too small for me, but I may work up one in a size E hook. Shouldnt be that much difference in size.

I love that
