In the latest issue of
Gathered by Mollie Makes I shared a new crochet envelope pattern. It is the perfect size for storing standard 4x6 inch cards, postcards, and other letter-writing accessories. This crochet envelope is made of three separate pieces that are sewn together. It is a great place to store the printable "Thank You" notes found in the latest issue too. I keep my envelope on my desk, filled with the letters I need to take to the post office. I really enjoyed writing more "snail mail" in 2012. I hope to keep it up in the new year!
This is a great project to make for yourself after a long month of making handmade gifts! I have been thinking about a new personal project for January too. Have you started on any projects for yourself yet?
Today will be a day filled with traveling "over the river and through the woods" to grandmother's house for more family holiday celebrations.
I hope you are having a great weekend!
Ooh this is so CUTE! And useful too... I've been gathering little purses and pouches over the last 6 months to keep my handbag organised (and clean!) and this would be a perfect addition, but I don't knit/crochet (yet!). You should sell these on Etsy, I would totally buy one!

They are lovely, I noticed them this morning in Gathered! I agree you should sell them on etsy! They'd make a great addition to the sheepish collection your growing.

These are just lovely. What a great reminder to send more snail mail. :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun at your grandma's!
These are so cute, I'd love to have one to keep special, hand-written letters in =) I'm knitting myself a scarf at the moment and it's great knowing I don't have a deadline, I can just relax and enjoy working on it.
ReplyDeleteLovely! Yes you're right, now i'm doping three knitted projects, and there is a beautiful pink scarf waitting to be finished just for me!
ReplyDeleteAww this is so lovely!! And useful too. I'll definitely buy one if you sell them on etsy :)

ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous, and so clever! I'd love to see them from the front, and maybe with some letters in them :)
ReplyDeletecute!!!
ReplyDeleteReally cool project!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful idea! I would have never thought to create an envelope this way but it's adorable! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is exactly what my present from my favourite penfriend was when we were 10 - grey with a small motif on the V...! I kept it for years and years.
ReplyDeleteOh my!!! This is amazing!! I love everything in this blog :3
