KNITTED HEART PENDANT

Send

Everyone knows how popular do-it-yourself jewelry is now - they captivate us with their individuality and originality, so most fashionistas seek to have at least a few handmade jewelry in their caskets. Massive polymer clay pendants are great budget jewelry. I propose to make a large pendant made of polymer clay, which will look like a sweater in a pattern.
So, for work we will need:
- bars of polymer clay of any color (it is advisable to take red or pastel colors);
- stationery knife;
- connecting rings (2 pieces);
- chain.

Step 1.
First you need to knead a large piece of polymer clay pastel (or red) and roll it into a ball.

Step 2
We roll out a long sausage from the ball obtained, not too thin, but not too thick (it will become thinner when twisting further, so you need to take this into account).

Step 3
Fold the sausage in half, carefully measuring every millimeter so that the sausages are perfectly even.

Step 4
We divide the sausage folded in half into two absolutely flat parts.

Step 5
Twist one of the sausages in a clockwise direction.

Step 6
Twist the other sausage counterclockwise.

Step 7
We connect both twisted sausages and tightly press each other.

Step 8
Take a small piece of paper and a pencil.

Step 9
Fold it in half and draw a half heart.

Step 10
Cut out a heart from paper.

Step 11
We begin to lay out the twisted sausages on a paper heart, putting the first in the center, and then continue to move to the sides.

Step 12
Carefully separate the edges of the sausages along the contour of the heart.

Step 13
Add the first half on the heart, then the second.

Step 14
Now we roll another large ball of exactly the same color as the heart.

Step 15
We make the basis for a false knitted heart from a rolled layer of pre-softened clay. We make sure that the edges of the heart are neat, well cut precisely along the contour.
