After you have turned your piece over count from right to the left and place a stitch marker in the 17th stitch. You should have 14 stitches to the left of the marker and 16 to the right. Leave stitch marker in place, you will be coming back to this stitch later.

If this is the first heart: Fasten off and set the finished heart aside. Make a 2nd heart using the same pattern above.

If this is the second heart: Do not fasten off just yet. Continue on with the directions below.
Sew all ends in now except for the yarn you are working with. I like to sew them all in on one side of the heart and then have those sides facing each other. This way the ends are on the inside of the pot holder.
Hold the two hearts together and re-grab your yarn. Ch 1, ss through both hearts, ch 9, ss into the same space to form a ring. (see photos below)

Ch 1, turn, 15 sc in ring. Ss into the same space you made your ch 9 in. Work 2 sc into the very next stitch to the left, sc in next, 2 sc in next. (see photos below)

Continue to sc around the entire edge making sure to work through both hearts. When you reach the next 3 open stitches at the top of the next hump work 2 sc in the first stitch, sc in next, 2 sc in next. Continue to sc around.
At the bottom tip of the heart work 3 sc.

Ss to join when you are back around to the ring.

Fasten off. Sew in end.
Using edge color:
Ss so join in any space. *Ch 2, ss in next* repeat from *to* around. Join. Fasten off and sew in ends.
