Seems like a good time to repost my Granny Square Hearts pattern. They would make nice decorations on a gift, or mason jar full of goodie, or as appliques, the large one could be a coaster.
The beginning is slightly different for each heart. Quick to make up for Valentine’s Day in one or more colors.
and a closer look, the pattern and diagrams are below…
Small Granny Heart Pattern
Round 1
Make a sliding ring and ch4 (the first ch secures the loop, the remaining 3 count as the first stitch)(or ch4 and slpst to make a ring).
In the ring: Dc, ch3. [3dc, ch3] 3 times. Close the loop, not too tightly to leave room for one more dc. Dc in ring, slpst through 2 loops of the top ch of the beginning ch4. Do not end off.
Round 2
Ch3. 7dc in same space as slpst. Skip next st, slpst in the ch3 space. Skip next dc, 8dc in the next dc. Sc in the next ch3 sp and in the next 3dc’s. 3sc in the ch3 space, sc in the next 3 sts and the last ch3 sp. Slpst through 2 loops of the ch3. End off, leaving a tail to weave in or to sew with.

Whatever works well for you and the yarn you are using. I often use an H hook with medium weight yarns.

Thanks! I made the larger heart today to attach to a coffee cup cozy that was too plain. It was perfect! And the directions were nice and easy to follow.

have you thought about making your heart into a square so that it can be used for an afghan. It would look great. let me know if you do.
