Optional

Add a row of single crochet to the edge of the heart. Use a contrast color to create a pretty edge. I used embroidery thread for one and a thin sparkle yarn for another.

I hope this video helps you make a crochet heart. Like I state in the video, it’s not a beginner project, you should already have some crochet know how and comfort to complete this. This is my first video, I’ll get better at these, and promise to turn the camera the correct way next time! Silly me. Leave me a comment and let me know if you make one!

I strung the hearts onto a long chain stitch and added ribbons. 🎀❤️ This was really fun to make, Happy Valentine’s day to all!
