Hearts

June 3, 2018 by Annie 2 Comments

I looked for a heart motif online and couldn’t find one that was quite right so I made my own!    It is very quick to make up and you can stop before the last row if you need a slightly smaller version.

I am addicted to making them now! These hearts are great for stash busting if, like me, you keep every single scrap of spare yarn and have lots of tiny oddments.   You could use the finished hearts as table decorations, charms or motifs for applique.   Made up in heavier yarn they could even be used as coasters but might need a few more rows adding to make them large enough.

Here is the pattern:

UK terms

Make a magic loop, chain 3 and working into the magic loop, 3 dtr, 3tr, chain 1, 1dtr, chain 1, 3tr, 3dtr, chain 2, slip stitch into magic loop and pull the thread to close the centre of the heart.

second round – 2 sl stitch into the gap behind the three chain from the first round.  3dc into the next stitch (top of the left side of the heart), 3 dc into the next stitch and 2 dc into the following stitch.   Work 4 dc to take you to the bottom loop of the heart.  3dc into the bottom stitch of the heart, 4 dc, work 2dc, 3dc, 3dc into the next three stitches, 2 sl stitches and one final slip stitch into the centre of the heart.

third round – 2 slip stitches then 2dc into the next five stitches (around the top of the left side of the heart) 7 dc, 3dc into the bottom stitch of the heart, 7dc, 2dc into the next five stitches, 2 slip stitches and finish off to complete the heart.
