Important!
Hello, my name is Svitlana,
I am the author of this pattern.
Here you can find the description of the
creation process of the toys, but without
basic crochet lessons.
If you use specified materials, your
hearts will be about 7 cm high (please, pay
attention, the toy size will also depend on
your crocheting density and can be
consequently different from mine).
This crochet pattern is for personal use only. It is PROHIBITED to sell
and distribute this pattern fully or partly!
But you can do whatever you want with a finished toys.
I would be grateful if you credit me as the author @fayni_toys and use
#taki_fayni when you publish your photos, so that I could find your works,
admire them and leave a ♥

Thanks for your honesty.

Wish you pleasant crocheting and smooth loops!

When crocheting toys, I use the "yarn under/over" method, while the
stitches look like crosses and move less to the side. Watch the VIDEO
