I rarely end up making things to decorate my own house. However after making the Hugging Hearts to send out with the Valentine's package I couldn't resist making the original boy and girl couple for my own Valentine's decorations. They really are adorable shelf sitters.
As I wrote about before the pattern for these is part of My Silly Valentine available from Crochet Village on Etsy here. I bought this set back when Crochet Village had their own website. However, while I've used this pattern regularly over the years, this holiday has certainly been quite the revival for it. It has provided patterns for most of my Valentine projects.
This has been a great scrap project. I have lots of red and pink balls of yarn left over from various doll and Christmas projects. This is a great way to dig into those and finish some of them off.
It seems strange that I'm writing this in mid January and I'm already done with Valentine's day projects and moving on to St. Patrick's Day. A good sign. I hope I can continue to stay ahead on both the gifting and the charity side.
