Why You'll Love This Conversation Candy Hearts Amigurumi Pattern

I absolutely love this pattern because it turns simple stitches into a charming, tactile gift that's quick to make. I enjoy the small, satisfying shaping that creates the classic heart silhouette without complicated techniques. The assembly step is clever and gives the heart a neat, finished rim that looks professional. I also adore how customizable these are — change colors or add tiny embroidered messages for a personal touch.

Switch Things Up

I love trying different colorways with this pattern; switching to bright neons or muted earth tones gives each heart a whole new personality.

I often change the yarn weight and hook size to make a set of varying sizes; bulky yarn with a large hook creates a chunky, cuddly heart while fine yarn makes tiny keychain-friendly versions.

I like to embroider short messages with contrasting yarn—try metallic thread for a sparkly accent or red for classic conversation heart lettering.

I sometimes add tiny felt shapes or glue-on embellishments for a different look; fabric adhesive works well for non-washable decorations.

I enjoy making a garland by stringing several hearts together through the edging before finishing the last few stitches, which makes festive decor.

I occasionally insert a small bell or a scented sachet inside before closing for a multi-sensory handmade gift.

I recommend experimenting with decorative stitches for the edging, like adding a picot or reverse single crochet for a scalloped rim.

I like to make themed sets—Valentine reds, pastel Easter colors, or holiday whites—so I can give them as seasonal gifts.

I sometimes add wire to the outer edge for a slightly posed or structured heart that holds shape on display.

For a playful twist, I make tiny matching boxes by adjusting the edging height and stuffing more firmly to create little keepable containers.

Common Mistakes & How to Fix Them

✗ Skipping the stitch count in parentheses can lead to confusion when shaping; always check the stitch count at the end of each row to ensure accuracy. ✗ Forgetting to place or use a stitch marker during assembly can cause uneven spacing along the edge; place a marker where instructed to keep stitch placement consistent. ✗ Pulling yarn tails too tightly when tucking them during assembly will distort the edge and shape; leave a little slack and weave in ends gently at the end of the project. ✗ Not stuffing the heart before closing can make it lumpy or misshapen; stuff gradually and evenly, adding small amounts of stuffing while shaping to achieve a smooth finish.

— 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. Below is the diagram to assist with assembly and stitch placement for the first side, continue to the steps and reference back to the diagram as needed. 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

  • Begin assembly at the 'V' of the heart: join the edging to the heart panel by working a sc through both layers and work 6 sc across the top as instructed, ensuring the first 6 stitches are secured.
  • On one side, place a stitch marker after 5 sc and count 19 stitches along the edging to mark the tip connection; then evenly place 18 sc down to the tip and work 3 sc into the tip stitch for a solid connection.
  • Flip the piece and use 4 slip stitches to join the two short edging ends together (inside of the heart) to create a connected rim before attaching the second heart panel.
  • With the second heart panel placed over the assembled edge, join and sc the pieces together following spacing: 5 sc across top, 18 sc down one side, sc 3 in the tip, 18 sc up the other side, then 5 sc to finish; stuff before closing and sew the final 6 sc to close.

Important Notes

  • 💡Use stitch markers to mark the tip and the top positions for consistent spacing while attaching the edging.
  • 💡Stuff the heart gradually and evenly before closing to avoid lumps and to maintain a smooth shape.
  • 💡Do not cut all yarn tails during the panel construction; tuck most tails into the heart during assembly and weave in only the final end for a clean finish.

These conversation candy hearts are quick to crochet and even quicker to fall in love with. Customize them with pastel colors and tiny messages for a personal touch. Perfect for gifts, party favors, or a lovely handmade display. 🧶💛
