Wow its so pretty
I used up all my red and pink leftover yarn to make a few of these hearts. I added a handle to them and they turned out very cute. My kids stuffed these pouches with Valentine’s Day chocolates and tied a gift tag to the handles. Tomorrow they will pass them out to their friends in their Sunday School class.
