From my crochet design room rises another creation...


The HEXED HEART


THIS PATTERN features my Perfect Heart SUSPENDED in a HEXAGON.  It is the natural progression from the Perfect Heart CAPTIVE in a square.  I know, I know, I can't help myself, these crochet hearts are all consuming.   OBVIOUSLY,  I am having LOADS OF FUN playing with all the ideas.  Sometimes, the ideas are flowing fast, way too fast, for me to keep up with crocheting them.
