Realistic Crochet Heart
"The crochet heart pattern is a lot simpler than you would expect just by looking at it. I worked each piece as a simple shape and then sewed it all together into the final shape. For the veins and arteries, I used blue and red yarn to make big stitches across the body of the heart. I wasn’t too precise about getting them in the right places, but I checked a diagram from a biology textbook to make sure I got the most important ones right."
