Step by step Pattern

Round 1:

1. Start with a magic ring. (Alternatively, you can chain 2 and work into the first chain if you prefer not to use a magic ring.)
2. Chain 2 (counts as the first treble crochet).
3. Work 3 treble crochets into the ring. (American terms, yarn over twice before each stitch.)
4. Work 3 double crochets into the ring.
5. For the bottom of the heart, do the following: 1 double crochet, 1 treble crochet, then another 1 double crochet into the ring.
6. To create the other side of the heart, work 3 double crochets into the ring.

1. Work 3 treble crochets into the ring.
2. Work a slip stitch into the magic ring.
3. Chain 1, then work a single crochet into the same space as chain 2.
4. Pull the magic ring tight to close.

Round 2:

1. Start working into the top of the stitches from round 1 under both loops.
2. In the first stitch, work 3 double crochets.
3. In the next stitch, work 3 double crochets.
4. Continue with 3 double crochets in the next stitch.
5. Work 1 double crochet into each of the next three stitches.
6. In the following stitch, work 2 double crochets.
7. Into the next stitch, perform the following: 1 extended double crochet, 1 treble crochet, then another 1 extended double crochet.
8. In the subsequent stitch, work 2 double crochets.
9. Work 1 double crochet into each of the next three stitches.

1. In the next stitch, work 3 double crochets.
2. Repeat the step of working 3 double crochets in the next stitch.
3. In the last stitch from the row below, work 3 double crochets.
4. Work a single crochet into the chain-2 space.
5. To finish this round, slip stitch to the first single crochet made at the end of the first round.

Joining and Finishing:

1. Create a second heart following the same steps but do not cut the yarn after completing.
2. Place the wrong sides of the two hearts together, ensuring the tails are on the inside.
3. If using contrasting colors, work the join with the color facing the front for a decorative edge.
4. Start joining by aligning the stitches, slip stitch through both hearts together, while chaining 1 between each slip stitch.
5. Continue until about three-quarters of the way around, then start stuffing the heart lightly before completely closing the join.
6. For a decorative effect at the "dip" at the top of the heart, work a final slip stitch in this area.
7. Cut the yarn, leaving a long enough tail if you wish to create a hanging loop or just for weaving in.
8. Weave in the ends neatly.
