Free Pattern: Heart Appliques

 

Noah loves practicing his colours, numbers,  and shapes. For Valentine’s Day I decided to use some scrap yarn to make these quick hearts. But I didn’t wait for February 14 to let him play. First there was counting, then hiding, finally throwing. I might also string them into a garland, bracelet, or necklace. Maybe save them to add to mittens or a hat.

Enjoy the pattern!

For this pattern you can use any size or type of yarn with an appropriately sized hook. For the ones in the picture i used a 3mm hook and worsted weight, acrylic yarn.

• Loosely, ch 4, (hdc, 4 dc) in 2nd ch from hook, (hdc, dc, [ch 2, sl st in 2nd ch from hook], dc, hdc) in next ch st, (4 dc, hdc, ch 1, sl st) in last ch st, sl st in the middle ch st, sl st in first hdc. Fasten off and sew in ends.
