- This is a tutorial to learn how to make some super cute leaves or vines in the shape of hearts. You can use any yarn you'd like, but I prefer acrylic because I've found it holds the best shape (specifically the brand 'I love this yarn!' its so great to work with!
This pattern is perfect for decoration around your home, dorm, yard, or office space. Additionally, it is customizable so whatever length you'd like between each heart is totally up to you!
Here is the written pattern if it helps:
Terms:
ch - chain
sc - single crochet
dc - double crochet
tr - treble crochet
sp - space / chain space
slst - slip stitch
st - stitch
inc - 2 sc in one space
Getting started:
(if you want to start with a ch: ch the desired amount you'd like, then go into the 5th ch from hook to start your first heart)
Ch 5
in the 5th ch from hook, place 3 tr. (all stitches are done in the same sp)
3 dc
ch 1, tr, ch 1
3 dc
3 tr
ch 4, slst to center. ch 1 behind the heart.
3 sc in ch sp
inc (2sc in one sp) in next 2 st
sc down until you get to the tip of the heart/top of tr stitch, then sc, ch 1, slst into the loops of the sc you just made
sc until you reach the last 2 tr, then do an inc in both those st.
3 sc in ch sp
slst to center
done! ch your desired amount behind the heart, and repeat the process. (the usual chain space between hearts I go with is 14 chains, then work the same pattern in the 5th ch from hook)
*note*
if the center of your heart is rather large, gently tug on the ch space to make it a bit tighter. Be assured, the more you practice the better you'll get at this pattern! I've also found that the type of yarn you're using makes a big difference too. Hope this helps!
Happy crocheting!!
