Cutting out heart halves
Step 1

Fold the sheet in the middle along the marking. Cut out the heart halves and the solid lines. Then fold it so that the lines are on the inside.

Positioning heart halves
Step 2

Place the two halves on top of each other in a heart shape and take the first strips upwards.

Weaving the first loop
Step 3

Insert the blue strip directly into the loop of the yellow strip.

Continuing the weaving process
Step 4

Now take the second yellow strip and insert it through the loop of the blue strip. The weaving pattern now begins to form.

Weaving strips completely through
Step 5

Insert the blue strip into the loop of the third yellow strip. With this, the first blue strip is completely woven through.

Weaving in reverse
Step 6

Weave the second blue strip in reverse: first yellow through blue, then blue through yellow. Repeat this alternately until the end.
