Working On A Valentine Heart Afghan -

Image
The Heart Applique I looked and looked for just the right crochet heart and could not find a pattern I was happy with for this project.  I decided to make my own pattern. So I'm going to give it a whirl here and try to explain to you how to make it. Pink yarn #4 weight worsted yarn.  Use two threads at a time.  I used both side ends of one skein.  The side thread and the thread that comes out of the end.  My crochet needle is size L MR- Magic Ring SS - Slip Stitch SC - Single Crochet Ch - Chain SLST - Slip Stitch Start with a Magic Ring. Single crochet 10 around the MR  SS closed in the beginning ( top two threads) Chain 3 SC at the bottom of the Ch 3 at the two open threads. (Ch 1 then Sc under the 4 thread hole.) Do this three more times but in the  3rd one chain not 1 time but 2 chs Sc again in same place.  This is making the point at the bottom of the heart. To clarify again what should be in  the point.  1sc ch 2 1s

I am very happy with how this looks. It has a wonderful texture.  I just used regular yarn.
