How to Crochet a Heart for Beginners

This easy how to crochet a heart tutorial and pattern has four rows, which makes it super simple. It uses the basics of all crochet stitches; the single crochet, half double crochet, and treble crochet. There is one somewhat “advanced” stitch called the stacked treble crochet.

Alternatives to using a stacked treble crochet

You don’t need to create the stacked treble crochet if you don’t want to – do this instead:

1. Chain 3 to start round 1, then make 1 treble crochet into the ring.
2. Continue with Steps 3 – 7.
3. For step 8 (beginning of round 2), single crochet into the 3rd chain from beginning of round (into it, not around it).
4. Continue on to step 10.
