It's that time of year again where everyone is putting out their holiday decorations and/or making some new ones. Last night was my company's internal holiday party and everyone really got in the spirit of things. A co-worker of mine had asked me to crochet her a Christmas Wreath. She gave me some green yarn and I was able to make the wreath below for her.

| A simple wreath |
For the pattern all I did was crochet a chain that I thought would be a good side for the inside of the wreath. I then did a double crochet in each chain and joined. For row two I did a double crochet in two stitches followed by 2 double crochets in the next one, and repeated till the end and joined. And for the last row I did a double crochet in five stitches followed by 2 double crochets in the next one and again repeated till the end and joined. Luckily I was at HDH making this and good ole Ethel had some red yarn for me to use and weave in to give this otherwise bland wreath some character.

I gave the finished product to my friend and she put it with the rest of her decorations. |
Then later in the day our holiday party started so I was walking around the agency keeping my eye open for some crocheted gems... I was surprised that there were so many items this year! Here were some of the most memorable crocheted items I could find:
 |
| Large crocheted Santa that someone's mother-in-law made |
 |
| In the area that decorated with a '70s theme they threw lots of crocheted afghans everywhere. |
 |
| Here's another crazy Santa, his hat and face are crocheted.. |
