Have you always wanted to learn to knit or crochet? Register to join Yarning with Friends for a beginner’s class. New and returning students are welcome.
In our February class we’ll offer a one-on-one crochet clinic. For those who are ready and interested, we can show you how to make hearts for Valentines Day. A crocheted heart that looks good in worsted weight yarn is the heart, below center. The pattern, suitable for advanced beginners, is available at https://sarahmaker.com/crochet-heart-pattern/. A heart in cotton thread is pictured below right. The pattern, for advanced beginners is available either with pictures or without.
Are you ready to try to knit a heart on your own? We found some patterns that look good.
- Easy garter stitch pattern: https://www.studioknitsf.com/heart-knitting-pattern/
- Learn some useful increases and decreases with this one: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=a_4u1IsEa-s
- This one looks quick & easy but the pattern says it’s for intermediate knitters: https://knittingwithheart.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/sweetiee280a2knite280a2heart4.pdf
