This square features a subtle repeated heart design formed using front-post stitches. Perfect for a baby blanket, or a wedding gift too.

A matching plain version of the square (without the heart detail) is also included in the pattern.

The finished squares are 15cm / 6 inches square when made with DK/light worsted weight yarn and a 4.5mm hook. You can make them the size of your choice by using a lighter/heavier yarn and appropriate hook.

Both the Heart Square and the Plain Square have sides 24sts long.

I designed this square with collaborative charity projects in mind, so it contains no large holes/loops and requires only a single colour of yarn. The design also allows for the size of the square to be adjusted in the final round, which helps when contributing fixed-size squares to a shared project.

This pattern is for squares which can be combined in any way you like to make a variety of projects including blankets, rugs, runner and wraps - it is not a pattern for a finished article.

See my tutorial on my favourite no-sew method for joining crochet squares like these.

This pattern is available in both UK and US versions. Both files will be available for you on purchase and you can choose whichever you prefer to use.

Important features of my crochet patterns:
My crochet patterns include BOTH a detailed ‘tutorial-style’ set of instructions with colour photos, AND a succinct unillustrated pattern using standard crochet conventions.
I have developed this style because I find I like to see a lot of detail the first time I work a pattern, but if I then work the same piece again, I don’t need the pictures, etc, and indeed they can get in the way when I just want a quick reminder of what I’m doing. The PDF is also structured so that the succinct version, with an area for your own notes, is on a single page, making it easy to just take one sheet of paper with you if you have printed it out for quick reference on the move.

This pattern comes with my full support! If you have any difficulties, please contact me. I am a real person and I’d love to hear from you and see pictures of how you use these squares!
