- Crochet a heart in three sizes!
If you want to know how to crochet a heart this tutorial is perfect for you. Using a number of crochet hook sizes you can achieve a crochet heart that is anywhere from 4"-5" across.
The written instructions for this crochet heart are below so that you can refer to them anytime.
Follow along as I make these Super Easy Crochet Hearts!
All you need to know to make this is SLIP KNOT, CHAIN STITCH AND SINGLE CROCET!
This pattern can be made with any size yarn as long as you use the correct hook size - make them for little appliqués, decorations or cute little face scrubs, their uses are endless.
SKILL LEVEL
Easy
ABBREVIATION
ch - chain
sc - single crochet
st - stitch
sts - stitches
slst - slip stitch
MATERIALS
Stitch marker
I used worsted weight yarn - but this design will work great with any size yarn as long as you use the correct hook size for the weight of the yarn.
Tapestry Needle
YOUR CHOICE OF HOOK
Using 4.00 mm hook heart will measure 4" across widest part
Using 5.00 mm hook heart will measure 4 1/2" across widest part
Using 6.00 mm hook heart will measure 5" across widest part
INSTRUCTIONS
Notes: This heart will be worked in rounds, beginning round will be worked across the top of the beginning chain and then around the bottom - creating your 1st round.
Use stitch markers to mark the beginning of each round.
Stitches in brackets eg (sc, ch 2, sc) are all worked in one stitch.
Using hook of your choice Ch 15. Be sure to keep stitches loose otherwise it will be difficult to work round 1.
Rnd 1
3 sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next 5 ch, skip next 2 ch (place stitch marker to mark ch 2 space), sc in next 5 ch, 3 sc in last ch.
Turn work so that you are now working in the bottom loops of beginning chain.
Sc in 1st 5 sts, (sc, ch 2, sc) in ch 2 space, sc in last 5 sts. (30)
Rnd 2
You will now be at the very first stitch of round 1 as indicated by your stitch marker.
2 sc in 1st 3 sts, sc in next 4 sts, skip next 2 ch (place stitch marker to mark ch 2 space) sc in next 4 sts, 2 sc in next 3 sts.
Sc in next 6 sts, (sc, ch 2, sc) in ch 2 space. Sc in last 6 sts (36)
Rnd 3
2 sc in next 6 sts, sc next 3 sts, skip 2 sts, sc next 3 sts, 2sc next 6 sts.
Sc next 7 sts, (sc, ch 2, sc) in ch 2 space, sc last 7 sts. (48)
Rnd 4
Sc in 1st 6 sts, 2 sc in next 2 sts. Sc next 6 sts, skip next 2 sts. Sc in next 6 sts, 2 sc in next 2 sts.
Sc in next 14 sts, (sc, ch 3, sc) in ch 2 space. Sc in last 9 sts. (53)

Mine came out great, thanks so much for this easy follow tutorial! I would consider myself an intermediate crocheter, and I was able to finish the heart only by listening to your voice, I didn't even watch! I'm going to add this heart to the front of a sweater I am making for my daughter. Keep up the great work!
💕😍That is great to hear! Thanks so much it sounds so adorable - I will love to see a picture of the completed project. The last time a made a sweater was 14 years ago just before my son was born :) 😍💕
2:02 beginning, 2:50 skip chain, 4:05 1rst round, 4:36 re adding stitches for the bottom, 6:04 round 2, 8:45 round 3, 12:02 round four 11:10
Finally! A tutorial that makes sense!!!!!! Thank you!
Thank you so much - I just made one up in Super Bulky and even a #7 it worked great!
I've been crocheting for 58 years. This is one of the best videos I've seen for making a heart. This heart has a beautiful shape....compared to some. Thanks for the video.
Wow Susy - that means so much :) Thank you for the kind feedback!
Great tutorial. Love the shape of this heart. I put it in my favorites!!!
That’s wonderful thank you so much for letting me know. I’m so happy that you liked it. I have yet to try one changing yarn at every round and making it striped but it’s on my to do list something to give a thought to.
Thanks for the video on this! I tried super heart to create this with no pattern and it wasn’t quite spreading the way I had hoped. Those 3 double crochets really curved out well
+Alonna Deville that’s great to hear. Glad it all worked out :-)
I love this! Thanks mine turned out great. I have to say, I’ve never seen someone physically wrap the yarn around the hook like that before! That’s so different. Being unique is awesome.
Well thank you :).
This design was so helpful for making pockets! Thank you
That sounds really cute! Thanks so much I am so happy you enjoyed the video :)
Thank you for taking your time to make this video! I was having such a hard time to read the pattern, until I came across this video.
Thank you so much for downloading the instructions for the 15 ch heart I'm going to try working on it. Thank you for your tutorial videos.
Wonderful!
I learned how to crochet in grade school and have only recently come back to it (thank you pandemic!). I was looking for a heart tutorial and really liked this one. I admit I found it a bit tricky at first, but your directions are clear and easy to follow. After the first one I got the hang of it and made several of these in different sizes for my sister. She absolutely loved them!
Wonderful! Thanks so much!
These are adorable and very easy to make. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you like them! Have fun!
Love. Can't wait to make
Have fun!

I understood until the chain two space part at 4:37 what is the chain two space?
The chain two space is what is created when you skip the stitches. If you look closely you can see that those stitches are more open than the regular stitches. hope this helps!
Wonderful tutorial. I even decided to finish with round 3 and it makes a beautiful heart as well xo
Wonderful! I'm trying to make up a bunch for a garland - so far just at two 😉
I had to retry like 5 plus times. Finally got it!
Kudos for sticking with it! xo
Thank you very much for this gorgeous tutorial, this heart is beautiful! God bless you! 🍃🌸🍃🧚♀️💟
You are so welcome
That was super easy heart thanks
I’m so glad you found it easy I was just sitting on the couch, making some myself😍
This tutorial was so helpful and easy to follow! How do you get the middle (where we skip two chains) so defined? I’ve noticed mine does not look as defined 🤔 also, if i wanted to make a bigger heart how would i go about increasing?
I pull the middle tight so the stitches kinda close together. I have been making tonnes of the hearts this weekend. To go larger you can increase the beginning chain. Although I have never done it because I just go up a hook size or/and yarn size. :)
I love this ❤ it is beautiful, thanks sharing!
You are so welcome!
Great explanation ❗️thank you❣️jan
You are so welcome!
Please show how to make a shamrock
I love this tutorial-- your voice is so helpful and comforting and the instructions are easy to follow with great results! I'm wondering if you have any advice for how to continue on with this pattern, adding at least one or two more rows? Thanks so much!
I have only used larger hooks and yarn. You would need to do a few more increases if you are adding more rounds.
Thank you bunches. Just finished my very first heart. (I have been crocheting for 37 years and never tried it.)
Wonderful! Thats great - I got a wee bit addicted to making them this year - now that you have made one you might like this video that moves a bit quicker and has a really cute edging. th-cam.com/video/a8pIBcqX6v0/w-d-xo.html
This is not super easy. It's too fast and very far from camera
Thanks for the input Popi - I will definitely keep this in mind for my next video.
I would like to crochet a more anatomical heart for an art project I am working on. Is there a way for you to show me how to create a more life like shaped heart? I'm am making lace and need the heart motif for the lace. Thank you
I'm so sorry I don't have anything like that for you
You asked if there are any videos we would like to see. Well, I’d like to see a video on the Brookside hat. I started four times and took out started over. I just couldn’t get it to look right with black and white yarn. I put it aside and started making the adult beanie with worsted weight yarn. I love it. ❤️
Hi ya! Because of the way the increases are done with the Brookside the texture won't look like the picture until you work the sides of the hat. Just like the sweet scalloped this increase rounds look slightly different because of the increases. Let me know if this helps - also feel free to send me a picture through etsy convo and I can have a look! xo
Pretty Darn Adorable Crochet Tutorials thank you, Cyprianne. 💕
Omg THANK YOU ! For actually showing us how to tie it off ! I can't tell you how many videos I watch and when it comes to ending the project the video just ends 😳

Beautiful heart pattern
Thank you so much Mary - i am happy you like it! XO
I like harts and you know how to explain your pattern so well. Thank you for sharing your video.
Thank you
You're welcome
I am a beginner and this is the easiest heart crochet tutorial i've found so far. thank you so much
Hello - do you mean to apply it to the square or a granny type square with the heart in the middle?
@@prettydarnadorable yes i meant that but, i made another granny square with heart on it through the practices thanks!😊
@@greyxx12 Thats great - yes my response was very late - sorry about that.
@@prettydarnadorable its okay these hearts are great♡♡
Nice❤
Do you have a video for a granny square for this heart? I am doing a blanket using this heart pattern, however; I can’t find a granny pattern for this heart.
No, sorry
I try looking online for a granny square similar to your pattern. I will need to redo all my hearts with other heart pAttern that has a granny square. I loved your heart out of all the hearts videos. It took me forever to finally crochet this heart pattern. It’s too bad. Thank you
What size hook are you using
Hey just a tip : make the camera closer please!
Thanks Agathe - I got your message and moved in closer for a few videos i just taped :). Thanks so much for the feedback!
do you have any advice for adapting this pattern to a smaller heart size? trying to make mini hearts for a Project and this is the only video i found of a heart pattern without the magic loop in the middle. also this is really helpful and easy to follow! ♡
You could try starting with a shorter chain and do less increase rounds. Unfortunately I have only made smaller hearts by adjusting the yarn and hook size.
Hi!! Does it only work on single crochet?
Yes 😊. If you tried to use a longer stitch the heart would start to curl to the inside.
I love hearts
Is there a way that i can make this bigger?
wonderful pattern btw love it!
+Cassandra Good morning you could make the starting chain longer and do more rounds. I’m a bit lazy so I usually go up a yarn and hook size. Hope this helps have a great weekend
@@prettydarnadorable ahh okay thank you so much!
Do you have the directions written down? I wrote your directions down myself and double checked it three times to your video, however; my heart still comes out cricket.
Everything you need is here prettydarnadorable.com/2018/02/11/easiest-crochet-heart-ever/
It's kinda hard to see what it doing cause it's a bit far away and I'm trying to watch and crochet at the same time. But I can't see where your crochet into to make some of the parts
Thanks so much I always appreciate the feedback. I have been moving much closer and now on my videos and you might find this one a little easier. It's the same heart just has an edging but you may want to check it out. Thanks again for being here. th-cam.com/video/a8pIBcqX6v0/w-d-xo.html
I should shoot closer and do the stitches more slowly. It would make it much easier for those who don't understand English like me: I loved this heart, but I think it's difficult to do when you don't speak fluent English. But I will try !
Thank you for the great feedback! I have started filming closer in my newer videos - so hopefully that will help. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
Is there a written pattern for this crocheted heart?
Yes thanks for asking - here it is :). www.prettydarnadorable.com/2018/02/11/easiest-crochet-heart-ever/
Can you please send written instructions of the heart ? Helen Bell
Hi Helen - written instructions can be found on my blog here:

I lost my written instructions of the heart please send me them back aThank you.

Great tutorial! Do you do custom appliqués? I would gladly pay you!
Hi Renee I could always try - what were you looking for?
🙂
i love this tutorial. but it is superrrr fast. Maybe just for me, hopefully everyone else can get it right!
Thanks for the feedback. I always struggle with how fast to go. I will keep in mind the more difficult tutorials to slow down :)
cute , but you are to far from the camera
Hi Roxana thanks so much for the feedback! I will move the camera in more for future tutorials.
I agree very much. I’m a beginner and want to make this so badly. But it was hard for me to understand without being able to see close up. I still haven’t gotten it but I will try again maybe when I have some more experience. Thank you for the tutorial
I lv it try to make dont know inglish but try Tkx .
+Mumtaz Lakhani Good luck!
So cute!
Thank you Grace :)
Can this pattern become an extra large heart if I keep increasing? Thank you. Very informative video!
Yes If you follow the increases as I have done them it should work out. Of course the easiest way is to go up in hook and yarn size xo
@@prettydarnadorable I love this tutorial! I am trying to make an extra large heart, however I'm struggling to figure out how to keep increasing. Is there a sequence/pattern of how many stiches to keep increasing each time?
I love your videos, but they are way too fast for me. Thank you
HI Alice - thank you for your feedback - I will try to slow down :)
Love it
I love it. 😍
I'm glad Linda - enjoy :)
Wonderful ☺. It's really cute and easy. Thank U 😉
IM SO CONFUSED ON THE 3 SC AAAAAA I can't find any videos on it :(
Why the cam is so far from the work 🙂
You're right it is far too much closer up on my newer videos. Thanks to feed back like yours. Thanks so much for being here.
Please send me written instructions
prettydarnadorable.com/2018/02/11/easiest-crochet-heart-ever/ the written instructions can be found here
Wish camera was closer. And wish you were speaking slowly.
Thank you so much for the feedback!!! I will try to do this in my next video :)
Pretty Darn Adorable Crochet Tutorials 👍🏻🌸
there's a slow down option for the video i used it
Not for beginners. 😕 Does anyone have a tutorial for those who have no idea what she’s doing?
Awesome
Thanks Christian. Love you. Xoxo
It is too far from the camera
🤓🤓🍹🍹🍹
The video was very confusing it would have been more helpful if you had gone a bit slower and showing your work a bit closer
Thanks so much for the feedback. I did redo it slower and closer in my other heart video. Hope it helps.
It was kind of hard to make even (probably my fault)
It happens to all of us sometimes :). It happened to me once - my count was off but bravo for getting it done! 😍
@@prettydarnadorable I didnt
Let me know how I can help :)
You can send me a picture if you want i may be able to figure out where things went wrong
@@prettydarnadorable it was uneven
while this heart is cute, you need to NOT fast forward the video for starters, 2nd slow down your going way to fast and for someone like me who might not be a beginner anymore It's still hard to follow, and lastly so beginners CAN also learn it....do STEP BY STEP don't skip steps it makes it too complicated and impossible for a beginner. As I said i'm not a beginner anymore and even I stopped partway through and looked for something else cause It was too difficult to follow along or even try to.
Thank you for the feedback Mellisa - I always question about fast forwarding I guess it is better not to and put time stamps for those who don't need as much direction :)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS XO
Not nice, melissa r,
I've been crocheting for 58 years and I think this video is spot on.
