Everyone knows how popular handmade jewelry is now - they captivate us with their individuality and uniqueness, so most fashionistas strive to have at least a few handmade jewelry in their jewelry box. Massive pendants made of polymer clay are excellent budget jewelry. I propose to make a large pendant from polymer clay, which will be somewhat similar in pattern to a sweater.

So, for work we will need:
- a block 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 pastel (or red) polymer clay well and roll it into a ball.

Step 2.
Roll out the resulting ball into a long sausage, not too thin, but not too thick (further when twisting it will become thinner, 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 even parts.

Step 5.
Roll one of the sausages clockwise.

Step 6.
We twist the other sausage counterclockwise.

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

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

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

Step 10
Cut out a heart from paper.

Step 11
We begin to place the twisted sausages on the paper heart, placing the first one 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
Fold the first half over 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 out layer of pre-softened clay. We make sure that the edges of the heart are neat, well trimmed exactly along the contour.
