Rose Hearts for Valentine's

Here's a great new pattern that I found at this blog, i heart handcrafts. I thought these might be cute to sell at the market, just before Valentine's Day.

Aren't they lovely? They look good in red and pink.

I made four of them. I did tweak the pattern a little in a couple of spots, and I prefer how mine turned out. They're adorable, but what to do with them?

I decided to attach a chain stitch string to them, and sell them as little hangers -- hang them on a small wall, or around a door knob, or over a chair finial or a newel post -- anywhere! This would make a cute addition to a Valentine's gift package, I think.

This pattern is a keeper! But be warned:  if you try this crochet project, the pattern is a bugbear, and very strange. You have to concentrate and do exactly as it says. I retyped it, adding notes to myself at points in the pattern where I was tempted to guess at the writer's intent. Good luck!
