Woven Christmas Heart (pattern)

Description

The heart consists of two separate parts which will be woven and sewn together. Each part begins with three straps that are worked separately. The three straps are then joined and worked together in the round in stockinette stitch.

Yarn, gauge, and recommended needles

As gauge is not critical for these ornaments, you can skip knitting a gauge swatch and use any yarn and needle size you prefer.
Choose your needle size based on the yarn's yardage (metres per gram). The thicker the yarn and the larger the needles, the larger your finished ornament will be.

Each pattern includes a small table with suggested needle sizes based on the yarn's yardage.

Stuffing

This ornament is part of my Christmas 2023 collection. The ornaments are designed to be knitted without stuffing, but you can add some if you prefer.
