Crochet patterns are adapted from:
I ran out of the navy yarn towards the end of the groom's tail so I made a large blue heart and inserted it into the open tail instead - the end product was a pleasant surprise! Also, remember to use invisible decrease for the body, or you will end up with an uneven belly like I had for the bride... To finish off, hang a nice photo or ornament (or a bauble for Christmas!) in the centre of the heart.
Happy crochet weekend!
