Product Details
No flower says Christmas like the beautiful poinsettia.
Poinsettias are part of the* Euphorbiaceae* or Spurge family. Botanically, the plant is known as *Euphorbia pulcherrima. * Poinsettias have also been called the lobster flower and the flame-leaf flower, due to the red colour.
I hope you enjoy knitting this striking wreath for your front door to display over the Christmas period.
The pattern has instructions for knitting the flowers and leaves and how to wire them for the arrangement.
