I was designing a different project when I wanted to add a heart to it – I checked out some other heart patterns on Pinterest and google and saw some really great ones for inspiration! However, I noticed that many were sold items or paid patterns – I decided that I would make one to share with all of you! A simple design such as a heart should be accessible.
These hearts were intended for Valentines Day but there is no reason not to have them all year round, love is always in the air! And always make cute details. These hearts can be great decorations or even appliques to add to your own amigurumi or clothing!

Stuffed Hearts
To make the stuffed hearts, you will need two of your hearts done before the have a border on them! Lay them on top of one another. Just like the border from the flat heart (seen above) Sc around the hearts but going through both stitches at the same time.
When coming towards the end, don’t forget to start stuffing your heart however firmly you wish!
