Christmas Wreath

Since the day I noticed the Springtime Wreath at Attic24, I've been planning to make something like that for Christmas. And here's my version of a crochet Christmas Wreath...

I started making it yesterday morning, and in the afternoon it was finished. I used exactly the same numbers of stitches in Lucy's tutorial. The only difference I made was not to change colors in every other row. For the rest of it I'm planning to add a tutorial tomorrow if the light is good enough to take pictures. And hopefully I'll change the picture in this post as well because I couldn't capture the exact colours of the pretend branches and holly leaves due to poor sunlight.

Hello 39!

Well today is my birthday! The fact that the following 12 months will be the end of another decade in my life hasn't started to worry me yet.

I don't have any plans for tonight. To be honest I'm too tired to do anything. Must be because of the aging thing! Plus, the extraordinarily cold and wet weather doesn't help much to get me in the mood for celebrating it.

However, it doesn't mean that I won't be celebrating it next year either. If possible, I'd like something special for my 40th birthday, so that I'd have some good memories to talk about for another 10 years.
