"I HEART U" Mini-sweaters


I Heart Valentine's Day.

It's a nice, warm spark mid-way through New York's cold, gray month of February.  

In celebration of the day, I knitted these mini-sweaters for my mom.  She decorates her and my dad's home for pretty much every holiday, so I knew she would love them.  And I will always remember just how excited I was to give her this gift!

I followed the Sweater and Stocking Minis pattern in Last-Minute Knitted Gifts by Joelle Hoverson.  (The sweaters are truly miniature; each fits in my palm.)   You can see them here on Ravelry.  If you can't get your hands on a copy of the book -  but I hope you can - have a look at this collection of *free* mini-sweater patterns by Berroco.  You will find them here on Berroco's website.

Enjoy, and Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!


I Heart You Mini-Sweaters:  Each insanely cute Mini-sweater fits in the palm of your hand. I knitted this set as a gift for my mom to hang at Valentine's Day. They're also adorable when adorned with your loved ones' first initials or snowflakes and hung separately as ornaments for the chilly winter holidays!
