For the Etsy Dallas Spring Bash all of the members contribute 50 little trinkets for the coveted bash bags. The bags go to the first 50 people in line and are filled to the brim with goodies and discounts from the sellers at the bash.
My freebie is a little knit heart. Even though they are tiny, they can be pretty tedious to make so I decided to make them in a rainbow of colors to keep things interesting.
I'm almost done with the yellow hearts and then I will move on to green, blue and purple! I love these bright and cheerful colors!
But what should become of these little hearts? Should I leave them alone as their cute, plushy selves or should I make them into something more? I thought about adding a crochet loop to the hearts to make them an ornament. What do you think?
Let me know if you like/don't like the loop and if you have any other ideas!
(Also, do you like the new look to the blog? I have minimal experience with html, but I'm pretty proud of the results!)
I heart your hearts!!!!!!! <333
ReplyDeleteI personally think that they may feel alone without something to hang on with. Also, THE BLOG LOOKS GREAT!
ReplyDeletelove the blog, love the hearts :D

what about a little rainbow heart bunting? that would be so cute!!!
ReplyDeleteOooh - they're so cute!! I totally though they were garlands, from the first photo - so I think they'd look really sweet as garlands/bunting, all in a row! :)
ReplyDeletethanks for the ideas ladies!!
ReplyDeletelaura & michelle - I wish I could do a heart bunting, but I have to put one in each of the 50 bags, so that is why I am only making 50 hearts! One per bag is all I can manage right now haha! So maybe just add the loop?
Oh my goodness, I just found your blog and I am LOVING everything. These knitted hearts are just so adorable. I wish I could knit!!
ReplyDeletelove the hearts--yes they should be on loops--than you can group together different colours through their loops, or string them out like a rainbow banner-------loop them through button holes on a favourite sweater---
ReplyDeletelove the hearts!! i don't know, i could go with our without the loop? i'd like it with a pin in the back to wear as a little brooch! speaking of which, do you have a pattern for these?? i want to make myself one!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I really like these photos of your hearts, so cute and nicely done! :)
