I made this Ukrainian heart for my brave, strong, and determined mom, reflecting her unwavering faith in Ukrainian victory...because there is no substitute for victory.
And there will be a time, when one will say: “Glory to Ukraine”, and millions will respond with “Glory to its heroes!
My Ukrainian Heart Pendant pattern is designed in support of Ukrainian people and our homeland. You are more than welcome to make these hearts for a fundraiser or to raise awareness about the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine caused by the invasion of our land. Carry this Ukrainian Heart anywhere you go, just loop it through the side of your purse, key-chain, or a zipper head.
For this special project, I used yellow and blue yarns, hand-spun from merino/alpaca fibers on my drop spindle (about fingering weight yarns)...but you can use any yarn you like with a suitable size hook, and your finished project will vary depending on the thickness of your yarn.
This new pattern is currently available in 2 languages (English and Ukrainian) and you can download it for free from my website. Thanks to my mom for her help in tech editing the Ukrainian version of the pattern.
Here is another cool project you can do to support Ukraine. Big thanks to LoveCrafts for choosing my Sunflower Coaster pattern for demonstrational purposes. This pattern is available in English and Ukrainian and is also free our my website. Below, you can find an easy video with wonderful finishing ideas by LoveCrafts.

I donated one of my patterns (inspired by my brother) to help Ukraine through LoveCrafts – Roma The Happy Penguin.

Slava Ukraini, Heroyam slava!
