Spreading the love one crocheted heart at a time
Many thanks to Nallie Radloff and her project which got me started on giving away crocheted hearts and now I also give away crocheted flowers too.

"Yarnified Love Bomb is a heart-bombing project with a mission to simply put a smile on someone's face to help brightens up their day with a small random act of kindness to remind them that somebody out there cares. These hearts are called a "LoveBomb" ...tags attached to it that says "You Are Loved" and the hashtag "#yarnifiedlovebomb" on it to identify the project. A simple little message in hopes that it'll get to those who truly need it. "

Usually I use a very simple pattern as shown below. I regularly love bomb Redfern and the NSW Art Gallery. Other people and places get love bombed too.
Many people have asked about the tags I use. Here is a sheet of 18 free ones one you can print off yourself if you have access to a printer. (It is an A4 file in Jpeg much like a photograph : size 1mb). Print out on white cardboard, trim the tags, punch a hole in them and tie them to your lovebomb hearts. If you like you can also add who the lovebomb is from eg. "from Queen Babs" or if you have Instagram or Twitter use that name "From @queen_babs".
