Pom Pom Heart Wall Art

You Will Need (3 things)

Steps (4 steps, 60 minutes)

1. 1

   To start this project, you're going to need to make a lot of pom-poms. a lot. I'm not good at explaining this process, so you can watch this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSFZ42uq6x4) to learn how to make them.

2. 2

   When all is said and done, you'll need 12 pink (or whatever color you choose for the heart) pom poms and 27 gray (or whatever color you choose for the outside) pom poms. The rows should go like this: (g=gray, p=pink, obviously)

   row 1: gggggg
   row 2: gpgpg
   row 3: gppppg
   row 4: gpppg
   row 5: ggppgg
   row 6: ggpgg
   row 7: gggggg

3. 3

   Once you have them all lined up, you need to tie all the pom poms together. I tied each row together first, then tied the rows together. You'll notice that the rows rotate between having 5 and 6 pom poms each, so the knots should kind of make a diagonal or diamond pattern when you tie all the pom poms together.

4. 4

   The top row should then be tied to the knitting needle as shown. Cut off all the excess yarn. Then take another string of yarn and tie it to each side of the knitting needle so there is something to hang the piece from.
