Joining Hearts
-Make sure wrong sides are positioned together.
-Push tail ends into the centre of the heart as you go to avoid having to weave them in.
1. Insert hook into the stitch between both lobes of one heart, and then through the same stitch on the 2nd heart. Attach yarn into this space.
2. Join hearts by SC around the edges, doing 2SC in some stitches around the lobes and other corners to help turn. At the bottom of the heart do 4SC into the 1 stitch. When you have SC around ¾ of the hearts pause and stuff heart with stuffing and lavender sprigs (or oil), continue to SC around and SL ST back into the 1st SC.
3. CH20, SL ST into the 1st CH to create a loop.
