Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and what better way to show the love than handmade crocheted gifts?! Once again, Blackstone Designs, A Crocheted Simplicity, Sincerely Pam, and Crystalized Designs have teamed up to bring you a fun blog hop style Crochet-A-Long. This time, we’re bringing you free patterns perfect for the classroom! Check out the free heart envelope crochet pattern, ideal for those smaller rectangle valentines or little notes. This envelope can hold more than letters or valentines though. Small treats, such as air heads or smaller candy bars, can also be kept within.
While each pattern will be on our blogs for the CAL, you will need to join each designer’s Facebook Community Group in order to participate and enter to win prizes. Follow the links below to join in the fun!

Special Pattern Notes:
Beginning chain does not count as a stitch.
Carry opposite color on wrong side of piece.
Work between half double crochets, not in just the top 2 loops. This will eliminate the ridge when working in rows on the right side.
For single color envelope, ignore color changes.
