Whether you're a beginner or an experienced crocheter, this sweet design is sure to fill your heart with joy. So grab your crochet hook, pick out some colorful yarn, and let's get stitching to spread some love through handmade creations!
WHAT YOU NEED
- Some DK leftover yarn (sorry but I don`t remember which one mine was from... it doesn`t matter, trust me!)
- a 4mm hook
- scissors and yarn needle
The pattern is written following US crochet terminology.
Please note that the turning chains are never considered as proper stitches!
Tr5tog = It`s a decrease,in this specific case used to give the top curves of the heart. It`s done by working each stitch up to its second to last step and then pulling through all remaining loops.

Make a slip knot on your hook and chain 3.
Row 1 (RS): wrap yarn around hook and insert tip in first chain, work 2DC, turn. [2sts]
Row 2 (WS): 2ch, 2DC in first st, 2DC in next st, turn. [4sts]
Row 3: 2ch, 2DC in first st, 2DC, 2DC in last st, turn. [6sts]
Row 4: 2ch, 2DC in first st, 4DC, 2DC in last st, turn. [8sts]
Row 5: 2ch, 2DC in first st, 6DC, 2DC in last st, turn. [10sts]

Row 7 (RS): 3ch, tr5tog, fasten off. [right heart curve]
