Notes
This is a beginner-friendly crochet pattern
The heart is worked in rows from the bottom up
The finished project measures approximately 12″ wide and 10″ tall
No sewing is required if you single crochet the pieces together
Heart (Make 2)
Row 1: Magic Ring with a base of 2 sc (2 sts)
***Alternatively, you can ch 2 to start and then work 2 sc into the
second ch from the hook
Row 2: Ch 1, turn, 2 sc inc (4 sts)
Row 3: Ch 1, turn, sc inc, 2 sc, sc inc (6 sts)
Row 4-25: Ch 1, turn, sc inc, sc in each st across until the second last
st, sc inc in the last st (8, 10, 12 sts… etc. until you have 50 sts)
Row 26-30: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (50 sts)
Row 31: Ch 1, turn, sc inc, sc in each st across until the second last st,
sc inc in the last st (52 sts)
Row 32-35: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (52 sts)
Row 36: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 48 sc, sc dec (50 sts)
Row 37: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (50 sts)
Row 38: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 46, sc dec (48 sts)
Row 39: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (48 sts)
Now, we’ll shape the top of the heart’s first “bump”. Each bump is
separate, so we will only be working the next part up to the middle of
the piece.
Row 40: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 20 sc, sc dec, leave the rest of the sts
unworked (22 sts)
Row 41: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (22 sts)
Row 42: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 18 sc, sc dec (20 sts)
Row 43: Ch 1, turn, sc in each st across (20 sts)
Row 44: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 16 sc, sc dec (18 sts)
Row 45: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 14 sc, sc dec (16 sts)
Row 46: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 12 sc, sc dec (14 sts)
Row 47: Ch 1, turn, sc dec, 10 sc, sc dec (12 sts)
Cut and fasten off after the first bump.
For the second bump, join your yarn to the first unworked stitch left
from row 39 (see photo below) and repeat rows 40-47 without the
first “ch 1, turn” step in row 40. Cut and fasten off.
Edge / Band
Ch 7
Row 1: Turn sc into the second ch from the hook and across (6 sts)
Row 2-132: Ch 1, turn, sc across in each st (6 sts)
Do NOT cut.
Assembly
Once you finish crocheting the edge of the pillow, DO NOT cut.
Continue by single crocheting the long side of the edge/band around
one of the heart panels.
I started by crocheting from the middle (between the two heart bumps)
and around the heart counter-clockwise so the stitches would look nicer
when looking at the heart straight on.
Then single crochet the short sides of the edge/band piece together,
and continue single crocheting the second heart panel on the other side
of the band. Remember to stuff your pillow before closing!
All Finished.
