CROCHET INFO:

MAGIC CIRCLE:
When piece is worked in the round, start with this technique to avoid a hole in the
middle (instead of a ch-ring): Hold the yarn end and wind the yarn one time around
the index finger to make a loop. Hold the loop with left thumb and middle finger, place
the thread over left index finger. Insert hook through the loop, make a YO and pull
thread through loop, ch 1, then work sc around the loop. When the desired no of sc
have been reached, pull the yarn end to tighten the loop. Fasten the yarn end on the
back side. Continue to work in the round in a circle.
WORK IN THE ROUND IN A CIRCLE:
After last sc on the round, continue to next round with 1 sc in next sc (= first sc on
next round). NOTE: Insert a marker between last sc and first sc on the round, move the
marker upwards.
WORKING 2 SC TOG:
* Insert hook in next st, get thread *, repeat from *-* one more time, make a YO and
pull thread through all 3 sts on hook.
-------------------------------------------------------HEART:
First work 2 halves top down, then place the 2 parts tog and continue to work in the
round towards the bottom of the heart.
Start by working a Magic circle with Eskimo on hook size 5 mm / H/8 - READ
EXPLANATION ABOVE!
ROUND 1: Work 7 sc in the magic circle. READ WORK IN THE ROUND IN A CIRCLE!
ROUND 2: 2 sc in every sc = 14 sc.
ROUND 3: * 1 sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc *, repeat from *-* the rest of the round = 21

ROUND 13-18: Work 1 sc in every sc = 56 sc on the round. Lucru 17
Cut the yarn and keep 40 cm / 16'' for assembly.
Work another half heart the same way but do not cut the yarn to continue to next
round.
Now place the 2 parts tog so that last sc from last round on both parts is towards each
other. Sew tog the next 8 sc on both parts with 1 stitch in every st, cut and fasten the
thread. Pick up thread from the last sc from ROUND 18 on the second half heart (=
now the mid of heart) and continue to work around both parts as follows:

round = 112 sc.
ROUND 23-24: Work 1 sc in every sc = 112 sc on the round.
ROUND 25: * 1 sc in the next 26 sc, then crochet the next 2 sc tog * - Read
explanation above, repeat from *-* the rest of the round = 108 sc.
