baby hearts

Do you fancy making yourself or a loved one a quick little gift? Well pull up a chair, you can crochet dozens of these cute little hearts in very little time at all!


These hearts are made as two flat pieces and are then sewn together and stuffed to make cute little puffy gifts!

Materials
Yarn of any weight (I used DK)
Hook a couple of sizes smaller than you would normally use for the yarn (instead of using a 4mm hook for my DK, I used a 2.5mm hook)
Tapestry needle

Note
These instructions are written in English using UK terminology.

After making two of these side pieces, put them together, right sides facing out, and start to sew around the edges using an extra length of yarn and your tapestry needle.
Stuff when you've sewn almost all of the way around, then finish sewing. Weave in yarn end.
