How to Crochet a Small Heart?
Crocheting a small heart is a quick and simple project. We start by working into a magic ring, so we can pull it tight at the end and result in a tight and neat heart center.
Most of the crochet heart patterns are using double crochet and treble stitches. For my tiny heart crochet pattern, I’m also using puff stitches to add more texture.
This mini crochet heart is actually the first round of the Heart Keychain pattern!
