Mini Magic Heart (worked in one round)

Finish off: Pull up your loop, cut the yarn, and pull the end through to secure.
To tidy: Insert your hook from the back to the front through the center of the heart, grab the tail and pull it to the back. You should now have two tails on the back — weave them in as needed.

Tip

For the best shape, use a slightly smaller hook than usual for your yarn weight, and always pull the magic ring tight after all stitches are finished.
