My Favourite Crochet and Knitted Heart Patterns

A collage of knitted and crochet hearts

Hearts are a fantastic thing to crochet or knit to use up even quite small scraps of yarn.

Last month I shared over 40 crochet flower patterns and although flowers are probably my most favourite thing to crochet I think hearts are a close second! Little yarn hearts are perfect for Valentines/Palentines/Galentines but also all year round for weddings, anniversaries, engagements or just general I love yous!

I’ve collected together a whole load of patterns to make hearts, some crochet and some knitting. Most are free but I have included a few especially lovely patterns that available to buy inexpensively. There are some fun ideas on ways to use your finished crochet and knit heart too.
