2 Free Heart Crochet Patterns
These Precious Lil Hearts are the perfect size to embellish buttons, bags, hats, headbands, little dresses… you name it. Make them in lavender, purple, indigo, or camo. Add your personality with buttons, ribbons, pair it with flowers, make a bookmark. The possibilities are endless.
I'd love to see pictures of any you create! Please send them in to me.
“I just wanted to say thank you for your patterns. I love them and they are always so easy to follow!” ~ Tania K.
Below is the perfect example of how the heart can be used interchangeably for a button on a hat or dress. Jena DeVries shared this image with me on Facebook and I asked her permission to share it with you. She says, “Thanks for sharing [the link to the pattern]! Just whipped one up for a cute custom order hat that I am mailing today, this was the perfect addition to the interchangeable flowers that attach on the button!” You can find Jena at Facebook.com/jenabeecrafty
