xmas creeps ever closer

and the wreath is done! well, not really. it's all knitted, now i just have to felt, shape, and assemble it. i am thinking that might be a good project for this weekend when we go to visit my mum. we always end up taking laundry with us anyway, might as well throw one more thing in the machines! at least i have the satisfaction of knowing that the tedium of set after set of petals is over (7 flowers, each with 4 sets, each with 3 petals = 84). it was getting a little old.
