Easy Crochet Heart Pattern
When my son was in Kindergarten, his class celebrated Valentine’s day the usual way – by passing out Valentine’s cards and candy to each classmate.
I wanted to send him to school with something unique and handmade. However, I am a busy person and didn’t want something that was going to consume all of my time.
So I went to work making these little crochet heart ornaments to slip into each card. These easy crochet hearts work up so quickly and in just a matter of a couple of hours, I had made enough of these little hearts for all of his classmates!
