Let’s start!

The heart – Valentine’s day Crochet pattern

We are starting by making a crochet heart.

Work in rounds, do not turn unless specified. If needed, use a stitch marker for the first stitch of each round.

Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6)

Round 2: inc 6 times (12 sc)

Round 3: [sc in next st, inc in next st] x6 (18)

Round 4: sc in all st (18)

Round 5: sc in all st (18)

Round 6: sc in all st (18)

Cut and weave in the ends. This part of the heart is called « Part A ».

Repeat Round 1 to 6 to make the second part of the heart, do not cut after round 6 and go to the next step for the round 7. This part of the heart is called « Part B ».

Round 7: We are now going to join Part A to Part B with 6 sc. Insert hook in one stitch of Part A and in the next st of Part B. Make 1 sc. (see pictures). Repeat the same action with 5 other st. Parts A and B are now joined by 6 sc. Sc in all the remaining st (24)

Round 8: [sc in next 2 st, dec in next st] x6 (18)

Round 9: sc in all st (18)

Start to stuff with polyfill.

Round 10: [sc in next 4 st, dec in next st] x3 (15)

Round 11: sc in all st (15)

Round 12: [sc in next st, dec in next st] x5 (10)

Stuff with polyfill.

Do not cut the yarn.

PART 2: The stem – Valentine’s day Crochet pattern

We are now making the stem of the crochet flower.

For this part, you will need a very limited amount of green yarn, a lollipop stick and a glue gun for crafts.

Start to wrap the lollipop stick with the green yarn. I put a small amount of glue at the top and over the stick and at the other end in order to make sure the yarn stays in place.

Insert the green stick in the heart and close the heart tightly.

You now have a nice crochet heart lollipop! It can also make a cute gift too!

PART 3: The Pot – Valentine’s day Crochet pattern

Let’s make the crochet pot!

You will need your yellow yarn (or any other color of your choice), a size D3 (3.5 mm) crochet hook, and a small amount of plastic pellet.

Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6)

Round 2: inc 6 times (12 sc)

Round 3: [sc in next st, inc in next st] x6 (18)

Round 4: in back loops only, sc in all st (18)

Round 5: sc in all st (18)

Round 6: sc in all st (18)

Round 7: [sc in next 2 st, inc in next st] x6 (24)

Round 8: sc in all st (24)

Round 9: sc in all st (24)

Round 10: sc in all st (24)

Round 11: sc in all st (24)

Round 12: dc in all st (24)

Yarn over and cut the yarn.

Follow the next step to finish the pot. Skip the next stitch and insert your tapestry needle in the following stitch (see pictures below). You have now made a new front loop.

Insert your needle under the back loop of the previous stitch in order to make the back loop of your new stitch (see pictures below). You just made a new stitch which and your little pot looks perfect!

Now in order to finish your flower pot, you have to turn over your last round of double crochet (see pictures below).

PART 4: The soil – Valentine’s day Crochet pattern

You will need your brown yarn (or any other color of your choice) and a size D3 (3.5 mm) crochet hook.

Round 1: start 6 sc in a magic ring (6). DO NOT CLOSE YOUR MAGIC RING TOO TIGHT!

Round 2: inc 6 times (12 sc)

Round 3: [sc in next st, inc in next st] x6 (18)

sl st and cut the yarn (leave a long tail to sew it to the pot).

PART 5: The leaf – Valentine’s day Crochet pattern

Let’s make a crochet leaf!

You will need your green yarn (or any other color of your choice) and a size D3 (3.5 mm) crochet hook.

ch 7 (7 sc)

sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in next 2, hdc in next 2, dc in next, 3 dc in next. Now working on the other side of the chain: dc in next, hdc in next 2, sc in next 2 (13 sc)

Join to first sc (leave a long tail to attach to the stem)

PART 6: Assembling all the parts together

Insert the lollipop stick into the magic ring of the soil part. You now have to decide how high you want your flower to be. I let about 1.5″ (4 cm) between the base of the heart and the soil. Once you are sure of your choice, close your mc tightly.

Now, attach the leaf at the base of your stem, just above the soil. I decided to attach the yarn together under the soil to make it more secure (see pictures). It is now time to sew your flower to the pot. I added a ceramic magnet at the bottom of the pot to make it heavier and more stable, and I then put plastic pellets.

You now have to add your flower and to sew the soil part to the pot. I decided to sew it just under the last round of dc in order to make it invisible (see pictures).
