I love this stitch, is so cute and looks so beautiful.

Is recommended to use a pastel color for the main color and a powerful color for the hearts.

Abbreviations:

  • Ch – chain
  • Dc – double crochet
  • Sc – single crochet
  • dc3tog – 3 double crochet together
  • st(s) – stitch(es)

To begin you will have to chain a multiple of 7 stitches plus 1.

Row 1

Ch 3, 1 dc in each st.

Row 2

Change the color and ch 1.

In the first st dc3tog,* ch 3, skip 6, [dc3 tog, ch 2, dc3tog] in the same stitch. Repeat from * to the end of the row, ending with dc3tog in the last stitch.

Row 3

Change the color. Ch 1, 1 sc in the first st, *ch 2, skip 2, 1 dc in the next 2 sts, ch 2, skip 2, 1 sc in the ch 2 space (midle of the heart). Repeat from * to the end of the row, ending with, ch 2 and 1 sc in the last stitch.Ch 3 and turn.
