I wanted to make some really small hearts for Valentine’s Day crafts, but couldn’t find any patterns online that I liked. After a few tries, I came up with these little cuties.
Tiny Crochet Heart Pattern
worsted weight yarn
size F/5 (3.75mm) crochet hook
tapestry needle for weaving ends
hdc: half double crochet
sc: single crochet
sl st: slip stitch
gauge: not important, but mine are about 1 1/2 – 1 1/4 inches across
“Big” Tiny Heart (the one on the left)
Make a magic ring.
R1: chain 1, sc into loop 7 times, pull loop closed, join with sl st to chain 1
R2: sl st into 1st stitch, 5 hdc into second stitch, hdc in next two stitches, hdc then chain 1 and hdc again in the bottom stitch, hdc in next two stitches, 5 hdc into next stitch, sl st in original sl st.
Give the tail a little tug to help form the heart V at the top, tie knot, weave ends.
Give the bottom stitches a little tug to make the V point at the bottom.
“Small” Tiny Heart (the one on the right)
Repeat pattern, but replace sc for hdc.
JUST what I was looking for! Thanks!

How sweet! Thank you!
So cute. Thank you for sharing.
very new to crochet so pardon me if this is a silly question but the
hdc chain 1 hdc in bottom stitch
part confuses me…what is considered the bottom stitch? and is it 1hdc, chain 1, 1 hdc all in that stitch?
I immediately set out to make this heart, and although I’m at an intermediate level, am lost at “hdc cain 1 hdc in bottom stitch. I tried a few things, and nothing looks right. Help – I am half done and I love what I see so far.
thank you I copy your tiny crochet hearts I will learn it how practice. thank again.I think crafts everything for fun. smiles Terry
I’m with Jeanne… I get confused at that part. HDC in the next two stitches, then I’m stuck. “hdc chain 1 hdc in bottom stitch” ??? Is that another hdc in the next st, then ch 1, then another hdc? Thanks for your help!!
Ok nevermind! I looked at past comments and found the answer! Thank you!!
Oh that’s wonderful! Stumbled on it while browsing Pinterest. I was just going to make up my own…thanks!
Found your pattern on Ravelry. Love the hearts and thanks for sharing!
Hdc,ch1,hdc, FORMS the “BOTTOM” of the heart when finished.
Awesome!!!☺ ☺ my first time reading a pattern and got it right on the first try. Thank you some much. ☺
Thank you for sharing your pattern. I have been looking for a tiny heart pattern to make hair accessories for my granddaughter for Valentines Day. Thank you again
Perfect for our kids mission project–hearts for the kids stuck at a Children’s Hospital! Thanks!
So Cute! And Beautiful, Thank You!
Hugs

I found your pattern via Pinterest. Just made a heart now for a friend. Love the simplicity and cuteness!
Thanks for sharing your lovely heart! I am not a good crocheter, but these are really super fast and cute. I saw them on Tonya’s blog last Monday and I gave them a try. Will crochet more, for necklaces….
i’m very, very new to crochet and i can’t believe how easy these little hearts are. thank you so much for boosting my crochet confidance. and the magic loop just blows my mind, i’ve just started a hexagon blanket project and i’m going to use this method from now on to start..
Hi
I just wanted to tell you that your tiny hearts are HUGELY cute. I have featured them on my site (along with 2 other cute heart patterns). Thank you very much for sharing this pattern :)

Great pattern; thank you! I joined some shimmering, white fine yarn at the top of the big heart and into each red stitch, I put a sc, hdc, sc. This made a scalloped edge.
I love this! but I needed my heart to be even tinier so i kinda skiped row 1. It worked out very well in the end! now i can make dozens of tiny hearts for any project!
sitting down to try these (smiling already!) thanks for sharing!
I am a crochet beginner and was in search for a tiny heart pattern. Luckily I came across your blog. I will soon be starting on the pattern.
