Step-by-Step Pattern

1. Foundation Chain

• Make a slip knot.
• With the 3.5mm hook, chain 24.
• Ensure your chain is not twisted, join into a round with a slip stitch into the first chain.

2. Round 1

• Chain 2 (counts as first double crochet).
• Work 1 double crochet (dc) in every stitch around (24 dc).
• Join with slip stitch to the top of the starting chain 2.

3. Round 2

• Repeat Round 1:
  • Chain 2, then 1 dc in every stitch (24 dc).
  • Join with slip stitch to chain 2.

4. Round 3 (Increase Round)

• Chain 2, work 1 dc into the base of chain 2.
• Next stitch: 1 dc. Next stitch: 2 dc in same stitch.
• Repeat this pattern (1 dc, 2 dc) around.
• You should have 36 stitches at the end.
• Join with slip stitch to chain 2.

5. Shaping the First Heart (Round 4)

• Switch to 4mm hook for shaping.
• Chain 1, skip next stitch.
• In the next stitch: 1 half double crochet (hdc).
• In the following stitch: 1 dc, 1 treble crochet (tr).
• For the next three stitches: 2 tr in each stitch (treble crochet increases).
• Next two stitches: 1 dc in each.
• Next stitch: 2 hdc in that stitch (hdc increase).
• Next six stitches: 1 single crochet (sc) in each.
• Next stitch: 1 hdc.
• Next stitch: 2 dc (dc increase).
• Next stitch: 1 tr (forms bottom point of heart).
• Mirror these steps for the other side of the heart:
  • Next stitch: 2 dc (dc increase).
  • Next six stitches: 1 hdc in each.
  • Next stitch: hdc increase.
  • Next two stitches: 1 dc in each.

  • Next stitch: 1 hdc.
  • Skip next stitch.
  • Slip stitch into base of chain 1.
• Leave a 10cm tail; cut and weave in end later.

6. Second Heart

• With 3.5mm hook, join working yarn at the base of chain 2.
• Repeat Rounds 1-3 to make the second heart shape.
• Switch to 4mm hook, repeat the heart-shaping pattern above for the second heart.

7. Weaving & Hair Tie Assembly

• Weave in all tails to tidy your work.
• Twist hair tie and insert between the two hearts.
• Optimize with a skinnier tie for best results; thick ties may show through light yarn.

8. Seaming Edges

• Using the 3.5mm hook, seam the edges shut by working slip stitches into every stitch along the heart’s outer edge.
• Pull stitches high as you go to avoid puckering.
• Cut yarn, leaving a 10cm tail, and weave in the end.
