To make this valentine you will need:
- White yarn "grass"
- Knitting needles No. 4.
- Red satin ribbon.
- Gold ribbon.
- Glue gun.
- Sintepon.
- Sewing thread (white, red).
- Sewing needle.
- Big pin.
- Scissors.
- Cardboard.
- Hairpins.
From white yarn called “grass” you need to knit two halves in the shape of a heart. Let's knit one first. So, we put 3 loops on the knitting needles. We will knit all rows with purl stitches. We simply knit the first row with purl loops, and from the second row at the beginning of the row we make a yarn over and knit.
Thus, we knit until 46 loops are formed on the knitting needle.
We divide the loops in half, that is, 23 pieces each. We put one part on a knitting needle, and the other on a large pin. We knit the loops that are on the knitting needle.We start knitting like this: at the beginning of the row and at the end we knit two loops together. Thus, we knit until 11 loops are formed on the knitting needle. Then close the loops and cut the thread.
Remove the pin and put the loops on the knitting needle. Add thread and knit the same way as the first part up to 11 loops. Close the loops and cut the thread.
The first heart is ready. We knit the second one in the same way.
We thread the sewing thread through the needle. We connect the two halves of the hearts together and sew them in a circle. Finally, leave a hole for filling. We stuff the heart tightly with padding polyester and sew it up with thread.
In order for the heart to become even more magnificent, you need to comb it with a regular comb. Especially on the sides, as some threads were sewn up when sewing. A comb allows you to pull them out.
You need to make a bow from a satin ribbon. To do this you will need a special cardboard blank. The width of this blank is 6 cm and in the middle we cut out a strip 1 cm wide. We wind the red satin ribbon in two turns. We secure the edges with hairpins so that the ribbon does not move out. We thread the red thread through the needle and sew the ribbon exactly in the middle.
We remove the tape from the workpiece and tighten it, fixing it with thread. We tie a gold ribbon at the place of tightening. Using scissors, twist the ends of the ribbon and divide each into two parts.
Heat up the glue gun and glue the bow onto the heart. We distribute the curls over the heart and glue them to it.
Fluffy Valentine is ready! The gift turns out bright, beautiful and soft. This valentine is made from a small amount of materials, and purchasing them will not cost too much. An original and tender valentine, made with your own hands, will not leave your soulmate indifferent.
