PATTERN

1: Work 6 sc in a magic ring [6]

2: Work 2 sc in each st around [12]

3: (Sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) rep 6 times [18]

4-5: Sc in each st around

Cut the yarn leaving a short tail for sewing. Make another piece just like the previous one by repeating rounds 1-5. Do not cut the yarn as we will continue using the yarn of the second piece.

6: Crochet the pieces together. Work 9 sc on the second piece, 18 sc around the first piece and again 9 sc on the second piece [36]. Sew the hole between the two pieces closed.

7: Sc in each st around

8: (Sc in each of next 4 sts, sc2tog) rep 6 times [30]

9: Sc in each st around

Fill the heart with fiberfill. Add a bit of stuffing after the next rounds as well.

14: (Sc in next st, sc2tog) rep 6 times [12]

15: Sc in each st around

Cut the yarn leaving a tail for closing the piece. Weave the threaded needle through the front loops of all remaining stitches and pull tightly to close.
