how this heart idea formed
I finally knit stockings this year for my family and I was needing a little extra embellishment to add to my daughter’s. At first I thought about adding a starburst or snowflake, but after trying a few things, I landed on this cute crochet heart instead. I’m so glad I did! As I sewed the heart to the stocking, I noticed that it started to puff out a little. It looked adorable, so I couldn’t resist adding some stuffing to make it puffy and extra cute. 😉 You could even sew two of these hearts together and add stuffing to the middle for a fun 3-dementional option! Here is the finished stocking I made for my daughter with this little heart.
