About yarn

What kind of yarn I recommend for a heart.
I use always cotton yarn. 
If you would like to crochet a heart with dimensions as I did, I recommend you to buy the yarn of size 8 or 10 for crochet hook #1.3-1.5 mm/7-10, for example:
- For Europe: Deco 8, Deco 10, Multi 8 or 10, Sefora
- For USA: Red Heart classic 10, Artiste 10, Aunt Lydias classic 10
