instructions

 
With pliers, carefully bend a wire hanger into the shape of a heart, and bend the hook to create a hanging loop (or use a purchased heart-shaped wire ring).

Yarn Bundle (Make approximately 78): Wind yarn 20 times around a 4" piece of cardboard. Slide the strands off the cardboard, and with a separate 8" length of yarn, slip the yarn beneath the loops and firmly tie the strands together at the center. Do not cut the yarn loops.

Using the ends of the 8" tying strand, firmly attach the yarn bundle to the ring, positioning the bundle perpendicular to the wire. Continue making additional bundles, tying each to the ring adjacent to the previous bundle, and working around the ring until the entire wire ring is full (see photograph for illustration).

TIP: Try using our Jumbo Pom Pom Maker as a handy alternative for making your Yarn Bundles!
