A little over a year ago, I made a tiktok showing how to make cute and easy crochet hearts. Limited by a short amount of time for a tiktok, it’s hard to show exactly how to do it. So here’s some instruction…
What you’ll need – yarn, hook, scissors, tapestry needle (optional for weaving in ends)
Thicker yarn and/or a larger hook will give you bigger hearts. Smaller yarn and smaller hooks mean smaller hearts. I generally use the hook size recommended on the yarn itself.
All instructions are in US terms
- sl st – slip stitch
- SC – single crochet
- HDC – half double crochet
- DC – double crochet
- TR – triple crochet
Start with a magic circle, then chain 3
Round 1 – DC 15 times into the circle, then sl st to the starting chain 3
Round 2 – chain 2, DC in the same stitch, 4 TR in next, 1 DC in next, 4 HDC in next. For the point of the heart in the next stitch: 1DC, 1TR, 1DC in same stitch. 4 HDC in next, 1 DC in next, 4TR in next, 2DC in next, SL ST.
Finish off and weave in ends.
