• Yarn needle for sewing and weaving in ends
• Stitch marker
• Scissors

Step-by-Step Pattern

First Side of the Heart (Make 2)

1. Magic Ring
   • Start with a magic ring. Make a slip knot, leaving a short tail.
2. Round 1:
   • Crochet 6 single crochets (sc) into the magic ring.
   • Pull the tail to close the ring. (6 sts)
3. Round 2:
   • Make 2 sc in each st around. (12 sts)
   • Use a stitch marker to keep track.
4. Round 3:
   • 1 sc in next st, 2 sc in next st—repeat around. (18 sts)
5. Round 4:
   • 1 sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st—repeat around. (24 sts)
6. Round 5:
   • 1 sc in next 3 sts, 2 sc in next st—repeat around. (30 sts)
7. Rounds 6–7:
   • 1 sc in each st around. (30 sts each round)
   • Fasten off the first piece.
   • Repeat Rounds 1–7 for the second piece but do not fasten off the second. (You now have two round “cups.”)

Join for Heart Shape

8. Joining:
   • With the second piece (still attached to the yarn), sc 30 around as before.
   • Next, sc 30 into the stitches of the first piece to join the two circles together. (You now have 60 sts around—think of joining two spheres to make the top of the heart.)

Shaping and Decreasing

9. Work in rounds, decreasing to form the point:
   • Round 8: 1 sc in each st (60 sts)
   • Round 9: Sc2tog (decrease), 10 sc—repeat around. (55 sts)
   • Round 10: 1 sc in each st (55 sts)
   • Round 11: Sc2tog, 9 sc—repeat around. (50 sts)
   • Round 12: 1 sc in each st (50 sts)
   • Round 13: Sc2tog, 8 sc—repeat around. (45 sts)
   • Round 14: 1 sc in each st (45 sts)
   • Round 15: Sc2tog, 7 sc—repeat around. (40 sts)
   • Round 16: 1 sc in each st (40 sts)
   • Continue decreasing in this manner (Sc2tog, [1 less sc each round]) until you reach the last round with about 6–8 sts left.
   • Tip: As the opening gets smaller, pause to stuff the heart with polyester filling. Shape firmly, but do not overpack.

Finishing

10. Close the Heart:
    • When you have 6–8 sts left, cut yarn, leaving a tail.
    • Thread the tail with a needle, weave through the remaining stitches, and pull tight to close.
    • Secure with a knot and weave in the ends.
11. Shape and Stretch:
    • Use your hands to shape the heart, gently stretching and molding as needed.

Final Tip

To ensure a perfectly shaped heart, add stuffing as you close, and use your needle to push stuffing into the edges if needed. Don’t forget, you can embellish your heart with embroideries, faces, or little limbs for extra cuteness!

Conclusion

Bravo! You now have a charming hand-crocheted plush heart—ideal as a heartfelt gift, cheerful decor, or whimsical accessory. Try it in different sizes or colors, and enjoy the joy this little heart bring to any occasion.
