There are many people that absolutely love the Poinsettia, especially around Christmas time. It is sometimes known as the Christmas Star, Flower of the Holy Night and also Christmas Eve Flower. The coloured bracts—which are most often flaming red but can be orange, pale green, cream, pink, white, or marbled—are often mistaken for flower petals, but are actually leaves.
I hope you enjoy knitting this striking wreath for your front door to display over the Christmas period.

I first started to design clothes for my children when they were younger and went on to sell garments through shops and craft fairs. I also taught the use of machine knitting and knitwear design. I later followed a career in IT, but I now have grandchildren and whilst hand knitting for them was inspired to start designing and creating knitting patterns again.
