In 2022, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II became the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee, 70 years of service. This knitted wreath celebrated the occasion, decorated with bunting flags, and the national flowers of the four nations: English rose, Welsh daffodil, Scottish thistle and Northern Irish shamrock. Use elements from the wreath to make future jubilee memorabilia such as brooches and hairbands.

Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the wreath is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round). A crochet hook is used to work single chains for the corgi’s tail and collar.
