Hello Friends,
How has the year 2015 been treating you so far? So far the year has been a busy for me. I started my second semester at University and started placement for the course. I am enjoying the program a lot so far and I am looking forward to all I will learn in this semester.
I was affected by the news a few days ago that Target Canada was closing down because both my mom and I work there part time. I have enjoyed the time I have worked there, the people I have met and the memories I will cherish. Below is a photo of the Target dog I received while working there for a great team card of mine being drawn.

Lately I have been so busy with school and work and placement that my knitting has unfortunately taken a back seat but I will definitely be trying to work knitting into my schedule as time goes on because it is so important to me. There are some cute valentine ideas that have caught my eye that I could knit up quickly and they would work with my busy schedule. Below are some ideas that caught my attention and I will be knitting them up! :) enjoy
1. Crochet envelope from the Crochet Spot blog! I love this idea. Although I cannot crochet, I can knit this instead its a cute idea.

Losing a job can be scary, but embrace the change. Lovely valentine ideas.
ReplyDeleteLove these valentine post ideas, I too have made several heart things and blogged about them a couple of days ago, but all these ideas are so different, love, love, love, thanks for sharing x
ReplyDeleteMy mom and sister love to drink coffee so the Valentine cup cozy is a good idea. But first I need more practice since I'm not good on knitting.
