Spring Chunky Knit Merino Wreath
Welcome spring into the home with a beautifully soft chunky knit wreath, handcrafted using 100% pure merino wool. Finished with a matching merino bow, this piece makes a charming statement for a door, wall, or mantle.
Available in a selection of delicate pastel shades, each wreath adds a fresh, cosy touch of spring—created by participants during the workshop.
During the session, guests are guided through the process of making their own wreath using a wire frame and soft merino wool, before finishing it with a decorative bow.
Participants can choose their preferred wreath size and spring colour:

Large 16” wreath
Medium 12” wreath
A range of merino wool spring shades

Workshops are kept intentionally small to allow for a more personal, hands-on experience with individual guidance throughout.
