Make a festive crochet heart garland for your home. It is a super quick Valentine’s Day decoration….however I must tell you I gave this to my husband for a handmade Valentine’s gift and we have left in hanging in our room all year long! You won’t believe how easy this crochet heart pattern is to make.
If you like to crochet you might like to whip up my free easy crochet rose pattern. So pretty and easy. I also have a jumbo crochet flower! Flowers are one of my favorite things to crochet. I have made a roundup of some of the most beautiful crochet flower patterns. Be sure to check it out.
These crochet hearts work together quickly! In no time you can have a bunch of hearts. Just vary the size of hook and type of yarn to make different sized hearts. I made these colorful crochet hearts with Lily Sugar ‘n Cream. I do love working in this yarn! It makes awesome crochet dishcloths, granny square dishcloths, and crochet dish sponges.
Pattern adapted from this basic heart pattern.

Easy Crochet Heart PATTERN
Follow this step by step pattern to make beautiful hearts!
Round 1
Chain 4. Make all of the next stitches in the first chain. 3 trc, 3 dc, chain 1, 1 trc, chain 1, 3 dc, 3 trc, chain 2 slip stitch
Round 2
Chain 3, in first trc make sc and hdc, in next stitch 3 hdc, in next stitch 2 hdc, sc in next four stitches, chain 1 dc in trc, chain 1, sc in next four stitches, 2 hdc in next stitch, 3 hdc in next stitch, hdc and sc in next stitch, chain 3 and slip stitch in center
Round 3
Chain 3, sc in top of chain 3 from the previous row, sc in each stitch all the way around (until chain 3 from the previous row). I chained one at the tip of the heart to get around the point easier. At the beginning of chain 3 from previous row chain three and slip stitch in the center of the heart. Pull the loop to the back and fasten off.
Inspired Crochet Designs wrote to me and said that if you make the following changes on Round 3 it will keep the top of the heart from curling. Used (2sc in next st) twice around the bumps of the heart in the last row. and it totally got rid of the curling edges. If you have trouble with curling this it is worth a try. It was easier for me to sc all the way around (chain one at the point of the heart).
How to make an easy crochet heart garland
Chain 45, in top of heart sc, chain 6, sc in top of the other side of the heart, chain 12, sc in top of heart, chain 6, sc in top of other side of the heart, chain 12. Repeat until all hearts are joined, chain 45 fasten off.

I think you should change the way you post on Raverly, bad karma to make it seem like your pattern so that people will click to your site, I love your site but you should just put suzies pattern in your finished projects so that people will see your finished project on her pattern listing on raverly if people like your finished project they can save to favs and you can invite people to your site in YOUR comments – But that just me

Here’s a picture of my garland hanging by my fireplace. http://mamabeefromthehive.blogspot.com/2010/02/february.html
I love your heart garland. I made one up today. But before I finished my garland I used the heart pattern to make a dish scrubby out of strips of nylon tulle. I made two hearts and crocheted them together with single crochets all the way around. I stuffed it a bit with leftover tulle. I have a picture of it on my blog.
Thanks for the awesome pattern for the Heart Garland. I love hearts and yes, I love them all year long!
