Any yarn may be used as long as an appropriate hook is selected, although size and yarn quantities required will change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColour combinations both within and between hearts are unlimited, making this an ideal pattern for using up scrap yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis pattern is solely formed by working heart shaped motifs, then joining them together in a prescribed layout. The crochet required is at an advanced beginner level, using ss, sc, hdc and dc in the round.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is unfortunately not suited to join as you go techniques, and motifs are sewn together.
