I too thought this would be a great craft project for a senior home, but I agree with the comment below that actual wire similar to a coat hanger might not be the best option for motor skills and safety. I DO, however, love the idea of the pipe cleaners! You can easily twist several together to make the wreath ring as large as you'd like it. This is a great excuse to use that Christmas yarn the stores offer each holiday season.

I thought I could use this pattern for my senior ladies, but they had a lot of trouble negotiating around the wire itself. This is more of a craft as it uses a minimal amount of actual crochet. I can see this being a childrens craft, and using finger crochet instead of hooks. A long craft pipe cleaner might be a safer option than the suggested wire. I understand what the author is attempting, but I cant see working up this project myself.

Try and be REAL specific in your directions. Love your pattern ideas, but there are MANY things missing. Sorry, 35+ year crocheter. LOVE your ideas though. Maybe, (if you can that is) redo your patterns! You say, use wire - twist etc.... what wire, what is the 'gauge' of the wire, what wire did YOU use? Wire can mean, well .... a LOT of different types! Love this idea, but I don't want to 'figure out' how to do it. :(
