Sometime ago I pinned a photo of a lovely Valentine's Card decorated with a crocheted heart....see here.
I found a really simple heart pattern and used a thinner yarn and also changed the top of the heart so the extra length of yarn could hang the heart on the card. These hearts are really fun to make.

Closeup of the 3 beads; two are very sparkley and the other is a simple red bead.
Glue I use regularly. It adheres very quickly. I used it at the very tip of the yarn, and then again on the ribbon bow that covers the end. Also used a dot in middle of straight piece of yarn and on the back of the crocheted heart.
Another closeup of the heart with the three beads before it was glued to the card front.

Stopping by from the What's Shakin' party - super cute!! I made a crochet yarn card too. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOh, this is sweet. I always had a hard time with making crochet hearts. One side was always a little "off". Take care, Linda Hope you come back and link up again to What to do Weekends.
