Sweet Lacy Hearts

Cute little hearts to use up those tiny scraps of yarn that you really don't want to keep but haven't the heart to throw away.

What do you think? do you like them, I know they may be similar to others out there and I apologise if I have copied someone's design but it wasn't intentional, I just played away with my hook and yarn and this is what I came up with.
