Head sõbrapäeva / Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️
This year, why not make a gift made with love for your special someone. This braid is called heart braid (südamepael) and is very popular in Kihnu handicraft. All you need is some yarn and patient fingers to make one.
❤️ First cut 6 strings of yarns of equal length (4 of one colour and 2 of a contrast colour). If you’d like a thicker braid, you can double the quantity.
❤️ Find somewhere to tie the top of your strings to (back of a chair, around a bottle, or ask a friend to hold).
❤️ Weave little x’s into the centre as shown in the video. First the contrast colour, then the outer edge colour.
❤️ Repeat, repeat, repeat. Watch the video as many times as you need.
❤️ Once your braid is finished, tie off the ends and gift it to that special friend of yours.Let us know how it went and share your braids with us by commenting below or by tagging @visitkihnu in your post. Sending lots of love from Kihnu! ☺️❤️
