Materials: (I used)
- 4,5 mm crochet hook
- Worsted weight yarn: (Martha Stewart Extra Soft Wool Blend) color A,B,C
- Scissors
- Yarn needle
Note: I used chainless starting dc/tr for every first dc/tr of each round instead of ch 3/ch 4. There’s another good crochet technique to use is ch 2/ch 3, dc/tr into same stitch ( counted as 1st dc/tr ). In the pattern below you’ll see I simply state dc/tr for every first dc/tr of each round, so just choose your best technique
You can use any hook size for this pattern, just choose a yarn type that matches.
Pattern:
Heart: pic no.1, using color A yarn
R1: form a magic ring, crochet 12 dc into the ring, total 12 dc (pull ring close, sl into first st to join, ch 1)
R2: work all sts into front-loops only, 1 hdc and 1 dc into 1st st, 3 tr into next st, 2 dc into next st, 1 dc and 1 hdc into next st, 2 hdc into next st, 1 dc into next st ( you have just finished half of the heart now)
Go counter-clockwise: 1 dc into next st, 2 hdc into next st, 1 hdc and 1 dc into next st, 2 dc into next st, 3 tr into next st, 1 dc and 1 hdc into last st, total 24 sts ( sl into first st to join, fasten off, weave in ends )
Wings: pic no.2, using color B yarn
Insert hook into the 5th stitch from your last slip stitch.
Ch 5, hdc into 2nd chain from hook, hdc across, total 4 hdc, sl into next stitch from first chain.
Ch 4, hdc into 2nd chain from hook, hdc across, total 3 hdc, sl into next stitch from first chain.
Ch 3, hdc into 2nd chain from hook, hdc across, total 2 hdc, sl into next stitch from first chain. ( fasten off, weave in ends )
You have just finished 1 wing, flip the heart and continue with other side.
Square bed: pic no.3, 4 & 5, using color B and C yarn
Flip the heart, you’ll see the back-loops.
With color C yarn, insert hook into the back loop of last st of R1. Crochet 2 dc into every st, sl into 1st st to join, total 24 sts.
Ch 4 (or standing tr), dc into same st, 4 dc across, 1dc and 1 tr into next st, ch 2, *1 tr and 1 dc into next st, 4 dc across, 1 dc and 1 tr into next st, ch 2* repeat ** 3 times, sl into last st to join.
Now every ch 2 at the corners is a loop.
(8 dc across, 2 dc into loop, ch 2, 2 dc into loop) repeat 4 times, sl into 1st st to join.
Change to color B yarn, 10 dc across, 2 dc into loop, ch 2, 2 dc into loop, *12 dc across, 2 dc into loop, ch 2, 2 dc into loop* repeat ** 3 times, 2 dc into last 2 sts, sl into last st to join. (fasten off, weave in ends)
