leafy goodness

First - some business...

There are two dates that you should be aware of now. One: August 18 - my birthday. Two: June 30, 2007 - our wedding date.

Second - I made up a crochet leaf in two sizes.




Small leaf -

Then, working down the opposite side of the chain and starting in loop opp. the hdc, hdc 1, dc 3, hdc1, sc 1. End with a slip stitch into skipped chains from the beginning.
