Top Tip
Regularly pull the tail of the French knitting cord to feed the pipe cleaner down through the strand of French knitting.
How to Make
- Paint the canvas black.
- Twist the ends of two pink pipe-cleaners together to make a double-length pipe-cleaner.
- Use the French knitting guide to cast on and knit 3 rows with pink wool. Then insert the double-length pipe-cleaner and continue knitting. Pull the end down regularly as you knit to pull the pipe-cleaner inside the strand, then cast off when it is fully encased. Pull the loose ends inside the strand with a needle to hide them.
- Repeat step 3 with a single-length pipe-cleaner.
- Print off the template as a guide and shape your word and your heart. Sew together at any points that meet to secure the shape.
- Use Super Tacky Glue to stick your word and heart to the canvas. Allow to dry thoroughly.
