A whole bunch of stuff...

I've started my Valentine's Day stuff! Hearts and roses... I used this pattern for the heart, only I added a 2 rows, 1 after round 7 and 1 after round 9. For the rose, I used this pattern.

I started working on this pattern from Goodknits Gracious... mine doesn't look half as good as hers.
