Amigurumi Hearts for Valentine's Day ~ Love is in the Air!

Just as fast as the Christmas and New Year's holidays were over, here comes Valentine's Day sneaking up on me, as most holidays do! Valentine's Day is so much more relaxed than Christmas though, and I always have fun with Valentine's Day crafting. I started a little earlier than normal this year because I couldn't wait to try out a pattern I found for these little amigurumi style hearts. The pattern is from Mia Zamora Johnson of Owlishly.

The pattern includes instructions for hearts in 3 different sizes, large, medium and small. I ended up making one of each.

These hearts were so much fun to crochet and they worked up really quickly too. I made all three of them in one day.

I know turquoise is not a traditional Valentine's day color, but I love it so much I couldn't resist. I'm thinking I will make a key chain out of this one.

If you are interested in crocheting some of these little hearts yourself, you can find the free pattern here.

I'm not done with my Valentine's day crochet so expect to see some more of my finished projects, as well as some more free Valentine's day crochet patterns in the next few days.

I hope you are enjoying your Valentine's day crafting. Feel free to leave a link to your projects in the comments so we can all check them out! A Valentine's day 'Show & Tell' !

Thanks for visiting, as always!

A Crochet Christmas

I'm still busy with my Christmas crocheting and crafting, and I have almost finished my Christmas doll.  I'm hoping to put the finishing touches on her tonight and share her with all of you soon.  But in the meantime,  I thought it was time I shared some more free Christmas crochet pattern links I've found around the web. These little crochet goodies are great for decorating your home or as gift toppers. You could also use them for stocking stuffers, or quick and easy gifts for co-workers, your child's teacher or anyone you want to give a little something to show you care.
