Notes

I’ve wanted to make this forever. I had open heart surgery so I need one…and….“I’ve got a jar of dirt!” of course…from POTC
I totally rewrote the pattern for working in the round-as well as wrote out each and every row because I can just fly through if I don’t have to keep going back up and figuring out what row I’m on…Working on my second one and I am flying through.

I love it! I will get some better pics later…I left the heart in a pot (hubby had no clue I was making it) so he could see it when he woke up..he left me that little note haha!

I actually did this in the round and it was a little annoying to have to modify the pattern to suit that bit-I can’t use dpns to save my life. I also had to change some of the measurements to suit the thicker yarn. I’m very pleased with the outcome and will most likely make another…and another…
