Teeny crochet envelope -easy project for a novice crocheter

[DillyTante]

Hello

I recently made this for a Valentine's gift, but figured it could be used any time of year to send sweet nothings (sweet nothing is all you can really fit into it!). It's a really easy project ideal if you are still just making squares, because that's all it is :)

Thanks, hope she has a go.

My mind is now wondering whether this can be made so it is a 6 inch envelope, suitable for a blanket square.... [ponders]

Good idea! I'd mock it up with paper to get the right size. Logic would say start double the size but not sure if that is right. I would then dc around the edge of the folded envelope for joining.

I would have thought that it would need to be double as the sides need to fold to the middle. Good idea about the paper version thug - I would have just barged in and crocheted it :o

thug = though. Damn autocorrect.
