Switch Things Up

I love transforming this pattern by changing yarn weight and hook size to create a collection of different-sized hearts.

I often use variegated or speckled yarn for a fun twist—each heart looks unique without extra work.

For tiny keychain charms, I add a small metal keyring before closing the heart and use embroidery floss for a tiny message.

To make the hearts more luxurious, I sometimes use a silk blend or cotton yarn which gives a different drape and finish.

I like to embroider short words in red yarn like 'BE MINE' or 'XO' for holiday versions or personal messages for gifts.

Try adding a loop for hanging as an ornament—use a short chain attached in the assembly before closing the final seam.

If you want a more plush heart, use extra stuffing and slightly larger hook, but be mindful of seam tension when closing.

I sometimes add a small felt backing or adhesive applique to the finished heart for a mixed-material look and easy lettering.

Swap the single crochet edging for a decorative stitch (like crab stitch) for a textured rim and a different finished look.

I also enjoy making sets in coordinating colors and presenting them in a small box for a lovely handmade gift set.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping the stitch count in each row can cause confusion and uneven shaping; count your stitches at the end of each row to ensure accuracy. ✗ Failing to tuck or weave in ends during assembly can leave loose tails visible; tuck loose ends into the heart interior as you assemble to minimize final weaving. ✗ Overstuffing the heart will distort the shape and make the seams hard to close; stuff gradually and firm enough to hold shape without stretching the fabric. ✗ Not using a stitch marker when instructed for spacing will make it difficult to match edges; place the marker at the noted stitch to keep consistent spacing during assembly.

— Assembly :

Info :

This is assembled right sides out, the project will not be turned inside out to stuff so the seams will be seen on the finished piece. Remember to tuck the loose ends into the project as you close it, so you don't have to weave them in. There is a total of 60 sc on each side of the edging attached to each heart panel.

Step 1 :

Starting at the 'V' of the heart between the two rounded top edges, hold the edging behind the heart and enter the hook through the stitch in the heart and the first sc from the edging to pull up a loop, yarn over and pull through both loops on the hook to complete the sc through both layers. Working up the heart, sc through the heart and edging 5 times to reach the top row of the heart. (Total of 6 sc completed at the end of this step.)

Step 2 :

Sc 5 through the heart and edging, on the edging count 19 stitches and place a stitch marker through the stitch in the edging and the tip of the heart. This will hold it together and help with spacing when stitching along the side.

Step 3 :

Evenly space the next 18 sc between both layers along the edge of the heart down toward the tip, sc through the marked stitch and tip of the heart. In the same stitch, sc 2 more times for a total of 3 stitches of the edging attached through one stitch in the tip of the heart. (Total of 31 stitches completed so far in assembly.)

Step 4 :

Continue 18 sc up the other side of the of the heart until you reach the top row of the heart. (Total of 49 stitches completed so far in assembly.)

Step 5 :

Sc 5 across the top of the heart and the edging, then 6 sc evenly spaced to reach the middle, with the final stitch landing next to the first of this round in the 'V'. (Total of 60 stitches completed in assembly, 1 stitch remains on edging.) Slip stitch to first stitch in the round, ch 1.

Step 6 :

Flip the project over so you are on the 'inside' of the heart. Going through the last stitch in the edging and the first stitch completed in the edging, slip stitch the 2 short ends together using 4 slip stitches. This will create a heart with a fully connected rim, similar to a tiny box.

Step 7 :

Position the other heart panel over the project, repeat the same process as the first side (use diagram as visual aid for stitch placement); join through the front of the heart panel to the edging and sc the two pieces together, space 5 sc evenly until the top of the heart row is reached. (6 sc so far this side of assembly)

Step 8 :

5 sc in the top row of the heart, use a stitch marker to connect the point of the heart to the edging, evenly space 18 sc to the point, in the point sc 3, 18 sc evenly spaced to the top row of the heart, 5 sc. (55 sc so far this side of assembly)

Step 9 :

Stuff the heart with poly-fil or other stuffing, 6 sc evenly spaced to close, slip stitch to first stitch in the edging, cut yarn and tie off. Weave in the end to finish.

Info :

Optional: Using red yarn, sew a message to one side of the heart. You could also use felt and attach it with fabric adhesive or a felting needle.

Assembly Instructions

  • Starting at the 'V' of the heart, join the edging to the heart by inserting the hook through the heart stitch and the first edging stitch and single crocheting through both layers to secure the beginning of the edging.
  • Place a stitch marker after 5 joined stitches and count 19 stitches on the edging to mark the tip connection; this helps keep spacing even as you work down to the tip.
  • Evenly single crochet 18 stitches down one side, attach three single crochets through the same tip stitch (for the tip), then evenly work 18 single crochets up the opposite side to reach the top.
  • After joining around the top and slip stitching to close, flip the project and slip stitch the short ends of the edging together using 4 slip stitches to create a connected rim before adding the second panel.
  • Position the second heart panel over the edged piece, join and single crochet through the front of the heart panel and edging, stuff the heart with poly-fil, then work 6 sc evenly to close, slip stitch and weave in the final end.

Important Notes

  • 💡Following each row, the numbers in parentheses represent the stitch count for that row—always check your count to avoid shaping errors.
  • 💡Tuck loose ends into the heart during assembly rather than weaving them as you go; this method leaves only one tail to weave at the end.
  • 💡Use stitch markers to mark the tip and key stitch positions for even spacing between the heart panel and edging.
  • 💡Stuff the heart gradually so it retains shape without stretching the stitches and making closing the seam difficult.

These Conversation Candy Hearts are a sweet and quick crochet project that make perfect little gifts or party favors. Customize them in pastel shades and stitch a tiny red message for a personal touch. Handcrafted hearts like these bring smiles and charm to every occasion. 🧶💖

FAQs

What size will the finished heart be?

The finished heart size depends on your yarn and hook; using worsted weight yarn and a 4.00 mm hook produces a small palm-sized heart approximately 2.5-3 inches across.

Can I make the hearts smaller or larger?

Yes, use a thinner yarn and a 2.75 mm hook for a smaller heart, or a bulkier yarn with a larger hook for a bigger, chunkier heart; stitch counts remain the same but the finished dimensions change.

Do I need advanced crochet skills to make this?

No—this pattern is beginner friendly and uses basic single crochet, increases, and decreases; the most involved part is the assembly which is explained step-by-step with photos.

How much stuffing should I use?

Stuff moderately—enough to fill the shape and hold form but not so much that the seams stretch; add stuffing gradually and check shape as you close the seam.

Can I add a message to the heart?

Yes, the pattern suggests using a small amount of red yarn to sew a custom message, or attaching felt letters with fabric adhesive or a felting needle.
