There were no instructions but I was determined to figure it out so Tuesday while I was snuggling on the couch with a sick kiddo I grabbed a crochet hook, cardstock and a paper punch and figured it out! Then I wondered, how cute would it be to do this smaller with my <a href="http://www.papermart.com/Product%20Pages/Product.aspx?GroupID=43703&amp;SubGroupID=43672&amp;origin=thefrugalcrafter">Papermart bakers twine</a>? As it turns out, very!</p>

<p>Best of all it is a pretty quick project! I made a short video to show you how it is done. In the video I use a larger cardstock heart and yarn to make it easier to see but you can use whatever you like. Just make sure you can easily work the twine/yarn with the hook and that the hook can easily pass through the punched holes.</p>

<p>Here is another tip for you, it is much cheaper to buy big spools of bakers twine than the small packs but you might not want to haul the big spools with you so I stamped some cute bobbins (Stamp from <a href="http://www.pinkpersimmon.com">Pink Persimmon</a>) and wrapped them with the twine and it fits right in one of the pockets in my scrapbook bag! It is also a great solution for yarn scraps and fibers, they won&#8217;t get tangled and they will look cute so you will be more likely to want to use them!</p>

<p>I hope you enjoyed this project. I think I might teach the kids in my knitting group this, it is a great intro to crochet since you don&#8217;t have to guess what stitch to put your hook through, the paper holes are the foundation!</p>
