Lionsbrand, Envelope..Valentine’s Day Project

I subscribe to Lionbrand’s newsletter.  This yarn company sends

some fun crafty ideas (mostly to sell yarn of course) ..and this one

was too precious not to share.  I don’t crochet as much as I should,

however this is a simple pattern, and if your not inclinded to crochet

it would be simple to knit a swatch,  4 1/2″ by 6 1/4″.  Isn’t it sweet!
