Thank you for sharing this adorable little heart!
I love this! I am curious, why did my second side the top seem a tad larger than the first side? Any tips? Thanks!

this has been so much fun. i made 8 hearts while waiting in line at parent teacher conferences last night. thanks for the awesome step by step!
This seems so easy to me, yet I'm completely lost after creating the point of the heart... So you work the 3 double crochets into the first chain, then chain 1, triple crochet into that chain or still into the first chain? And then chain 1 again??
If I'm doing that correctly, what I am doing wrong after this? Do you work the next set of 3 double crochets into that last chain you created or into the first original chain? I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but mine looks completely awful. :(
JFK -
Let's see if I can help you out! for the point of the heart you work 3 double crochets into the first chain, then you chain 1. Work 1 triple crochet into the same first chain you've been working in the whole time (not the ch 1 you just made - this ch 1 is simply worked because the length of the triple crochet is taller than the double crochets you made before, so the extra ch 1 on each side helps it fit). After the triple crochet, ch 1. Then work 3 double crochets into the same first chain you've been working in the entire time - all of your crochets are worked in that very first chain stitch : )
CUTE. once i figured that triple and double crochet seem to be different in different countries, i got it straight away! awesome. great instructions :) thank you! love my wee heart!
Thank you for sharing this heart, i love it.
simple and beautifull, thank you so much for this awesome tuttorial!

Hi Rachel,
I just came across this tutorial on Pintrest, and immediately busted out some yarn and needles. Now, I'm TOTALLY new to crochet (which is why this seemed like the perfect little project for me!) so I do have a question. How do I actually finish the heart? I mean, after the slip stitch. How do I tie off the yarn? I realize this is probably really a stupid question, but I tried looking online for some tips, and didn't find anything. :(
Beautiful!

Thanks for sharing such a good tutorial! I love it. I've been making some of these lately and you are right.. they are addicting!
Thanks for such an easy-to-follow tutorial. Such fun to do!
Just push your cut end of your yarn thru the center hole then tie a knot from there
This is an awesome tutorial! Great pics and directions!
Thank you!
Thanks, these will be a great addition to the valentine box we're sending my sister and niece....I've been making them with the magic circle and have little to no hole in the middle.
As all the other comments already said, thanks so much for this easy as pie tutorial. You can see them here:
