HOW TO CROCHET THE HEART POUCH

YOU WILL NEED:

  • yarn
  • 4.00 mm hook
  • scissors
  • tapestry needle

GAUGE:

4 sts x 5 row = 1 square inch (in single crochet)

SIZE:

6 inches across and 4 inches from the dip to the tip

STITCHES USED:

  • sc = single crochet
  • inc = increase
  • dec = decrease
  • sl st = slip stitch
  • ch = chain

WRITTEN PATTERN FOR THE HEART POUCH:

First, you will crochet a chain that you expand with single crochet stitches to make it look like a heart. Then you will crochet 2 heart halves which will then be sewn to the full heart to turn it into a pouch with an opening where the 2 halves meet.

CROCHET THE FULL HEART

Start with a chain of 19

R1: 2 sc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1 sc in each of the next 7 chs, skip 2 ch, 1 sc in each of the next 7 chs, 3 sc in the next ch. The next stitches you’ll crochet on the other side of the chain: 1 sc in each of the next 8 chs (the last sc in the ch space), 2 ch, 1 sc in each of the next 9 chs (first sc in the ch space)

CROCHET THE 2 HEART HALVES

Make 2 of the below pattern to create 2 halves

Start with a chain of 9

R1: 2 sc in the 2nd ch from the hook, 1 sc in each of the next 6 chs, 3 sc in last ch. The next stitches you’ll crochet on the other side of the chain: 1 sc in each of the next 5 chs, 1 sc dec over the last 2 sts, turn

R2: skip 1st st, 1 sc in the next 5 sts, 3 sc in 1 st, 1sc in the next st, 3 sc in 1 st, 1 sc in the next 7 sts, 2 sc in the last st, turn

R3: 2 sc in the first st, 1 sc in the next 10 sts, 3 sc in 1 st, 1sc in the next st, 3 sc in 1 st, 1 sc in the next 5 sts, 1 sc dec over the last 2 sts, turn

R4: skip 1st st, 1 sc in the next 7 sts, 3 sc in 1 st, 1sc in the next st, 3 sc in 1 st, 1 sc in the next 13 sts, 2 sc in the last st, turn

Now crochet a sl st row along the straight edge where you placed the increases and decreases at the beginning and end of each row.

Now, place the 2 halves on top of the full heart and sew all the way around. You can use the whip stitch, slip stitches, mattress stitch or any other method. It all depends on how you want the edge to look.

Fasten off and weave in your ends.
