  Step 1

  Knit the envelope. Here's how.
  Cast on 3sts. Row 1 - K. Row 2 - P.
  Rows 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13 - incr I st each end (you'll have 15 sts in all).
  Rows 2, 4, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16 - P.
  Rows 17-30 - stocking stitch ie K one row, P next row.
  Rows 31, 32 - P
  Rows 33-44 - stocking stitch.
  Cast off (bind off).
  I put in those purl rows where you'd expect knit rows at rows 15 and 31 because it makes the envelope look crisper when you fold it.

  Step 2

  Sew in the ends and then embroider on the stamp and address.

  Step 3

  Now fold your piece of knitting into an envelope shape. Sew the side seams. Catch down the flap at the back.

  Step 4

  SWALK if you like too!
  (SWALK = seal - or in this case - stitch with a loving kiss)
  This will be great for a Valentine gift!

  Step 5

  Attach the key chain to one corner, either by sewing or with a jump ring. There you are - all done!
