It is customary to give valentines on Valentine's Day.I suggest weaving a valentine from rubber bands, which will not only serve as a good surprise, but will also show all your love and tenderness to the person who receives it!Materials and tools:

gum (lilac, red and pink);
hook;
sintepon (or other filler);
clip.

Stages of work:To weave a heart, you can use absolutely any color of rubber bands. You can weave it in one color, or in different colors. We will weave a striped rubber band. In each row, we will change the color. The sequence can be any, but in this master class we will weave like this: red, pink, lilac. First, we will weave 2 upper parts of the heart, and then connect them. We will collect a lumigurumi ring from 5 rubber bands. 1 for the initial ring and 4 for loops. For the initial ring, we will take lilac rubber bands, and we will make the loops red. It is not necessary to mark the beginning of the row with a clip, because of the different colors of the rubber bands, we will see where the row ends and begins. In the next row, we will make an increase. We will weave 2 pink rubber bands through each loop. That is, at the end of the row, we will have 8 loops. Row 3 we knit according to the following pattern: through the 1st loop we knit 1 elastic band, through the 2nd - 2, through the 3rd - 1 and so on. We knit again with lilac elastic bands. Row 4 we will add a little more. We knit the first 2 loops with 1 elastic band, through the 3rd - 2 elastic bands. And according to this pattern to the end of the row. We knit with red elastic bands.We put the clip on the last loop and put it aside.detail aside. We need another one of the same detail. We knit another detail using the colors of the rubber bands and the patterns in the same sequence. Now we take both details and put the loops with clips on the hook. Remove the clips. We put the details next to each other. We need to connect them. We knit 1 rubber band through 1-y. loop of the next row on both details. That is, we knit the rubber band through 2 loops on the hook. We knit with red rubber bands.And we continue to weave in a circle, 1 elastic band through each loop.Next we change the rubber bands to pink ones, because that’s exactly whatThis color comes after the red color. We also knit 1 elastic band through each loop. That is, we do not decrease or increase. We change the color to lilac and knit a row similar to the previous one. In this row, we will decrease. We knit with red elastic bands according to the pattern: 3 loops with 1 elastic band through each, and we knit the 4th and 5th loops together with 1 elastic band. To make the knitting beautiful, we will connect the loops by inserting the hook not under the entire loop, but under the inner half-loop. The next row we decrease through every 2 loops with pink elastic bands.Next row we decrease through 1 loop and weavelilac rubber bands. At this stage, we stuff the heart with synthetic padding. We do not stuff it too tightly, so that the fibers do not stick out between the loops, but we also take into account that later some of the filler will go down. You can use any other filler and even wool or just yarn, for example, white.The next row we knit 1 elastic band in each loop and change the elastic bands to red ones. Then we knit only with pink elastic bands, decreasing in each loop. We knit like this until the hole is closed.With the last loop we make a knot, that iswe pass it through the loop and, without putting the 2nd side on the hook, we pull it through all the elastic bands on the hook. We put the 2nd part on the hook and pass it through the 1st.To hide the knot, insert the hook shallowly into the weave and simply pull the knot inside.The heart is ready!
