Skill level: Easy

Materials: 

For my crochet heart I’ve used fingering cotton and a 3 mm crochet hook. For this project I recommend these yarns:

 

This is a high quality cotton yarn. The mercerisation process gives cotton a fantastic sheen and makes it even more durable. This yarn is a beautiful and shiny material which works great with this pattern. Here you find the yarn:

 

 

 

 

 

 

A very high quality mercerised cotton yarn. The color chart includes plenty of gorgeous colors. Here you can buy the yarn:

 

 

 

 

The dimensions of this crochet heart are: 8.5 cm width and 7.5 cm high.

If it’s to small heart you can use a worsted weight yarn and using the same pattern you’ll have a bigger heart.

  3. One loop remains on the hook. This is the first single crochet made! Repeat step 1 and 2 for more single crochet stitches.
