Free Heart Crochet Pattern with Daisy Center
This free heart crochet pattern is gorgeous, isn’t it? I just love the daisy in the center, the colors, and everything about it. Honestly, I planned on using mine for a dishcloth… it’s not huge, but it would work well for wiping down counters. But, it’s simply too pretty for that.
This free heart crochet pattern is quick and adorable. Use it for decorations, a bunting, and yes, even a dishcloth (check out this list of 25 Mother’s Day Ideas, too).
Materials:
- small amounts of worsted weight yarn
- H Crochet Hook
Pattern Notes:
Size: Heart measures approximately 7″ tall.
Starting Triple Crochet Cluster (STCC): ch 3, wrap yarn around hook twice. Insert hook into a dc from the previous round. Pull up a loop; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; yarn over, pull through two loops. There should be 2 loops remaining on your hook. Yarn over twice, insert hook into the SAME stitch; pull up a loop; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; yarn over, pull through 2 loops. There should now be 3 loops on your hook. Yarn over, pull through all loops.
Triple Crochet Cluster (TCC): Wrap yarn around hook twice. Insert hook into a dc from the previous round. Pull up a loop; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; yarn over, pull through two loops. There should be 2 loops remaining on your hook. Yarn over twice, insert hook into the SAME stitch; pull up a loop; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; yarn over, pull through 2 loops. There should now be 3 loops on your hook. Yarn over twice, insert hook into the SAME stitch. Pull up a loop; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; yarn over, pull through 2 loops; There should now be 4 loops on your hook. Yarn over, pull through all loops.
Half Treble Crochet (HTC): Bunny Mummy’s pattern calls for half treble crochets. Here’s how you do those: Wrap yarn around hook twice. Insert hook into a stitch on the previous round. Pull up a loop. yarn over, pull through 2 loops. You should now have 3 loops on your hook. Yarn over, pull through all three loops.
Now that we’ve got all that out of the way, we’re ready to get started.
Daisy Center: ch 3.
Round 1: 12 dc into the first ch. Sl st to the top of the first dc (not the chains). Cut yarn and weave ends. (12)
Round 2: ch 3, STCC in the same stitch, ch 2. *TCC in the next stitch, ch 2* around. Sl st to the top of the STCC. Cut yarn and weave ends. (12 clusters and 12 ch 2 spaces made)
Have your daisy ready? Great! Now head on over to this post from Bunny Mummy to make the granny heart portion of the dishcloth – the directions begin about halfway through the post. At the end, don’t sl st. Just come back over here and do the final round.
Final Round.
sc in the first 5 stitches, 2 sc in the next stitch, *sc in the next 2 stitches, 2 sc in the next stitch* two more times. Sc in the next 24 stitches (this includes the ch 1 spaces). At the bottom of the heart, sc, ch 2, sc. Sc in the next 24 stitches. 2 sc in the next stitch, *sc in the next 2 stitches, 2 sc in the next stitch* two more times. Sc in the next 5 stitches. Sl st to the first sc. Cut yarn and weave ends.
Now, make a few more hearts using this heart crochet pattern and string them together as a beautiful bunting.

Think I might add a row or two to make a square for my Goddaughter's afghan!
So gorgeous! Thanks for sharing with us!
How do you turn the heart shape daisy into a square to add to other squares in a blanket? Just a beginner.
This is so beautiful. I dont think I could get any scrubbing done.lol. Thank you for sharing.
I keep coming back to this because I LOVE IT 😀
I'm loving it … so much, that I translated it to German for my blog (http://nadelspiellust.blogspot.de/2014/05/mittwochs-mag-ich-ein-herz-fur-muttern.html) … I hope you don't mind, but the people will love it 🙂
The cutest dishcloth I have seen!
What a fantastic motif. And a great idea to use it as a dishcloth!
Thank you for this lovely motif pattern Lauren. I love your blog, so many fantastic ideas and inspiration, your ideas keep me so busy x
I collect heart shape things, and I fell in love with this pattern. Not sure if I can do it, but I am going to give it a try!
Love this thankyou for posting. I am going to use this as a cute pocket on a little jean jumper dress.
I saw this and cried….literally. My grandmother taught me to crochet and daisies were our thing….and hearts… In everything I've ever done from blogs, to photos to artwork tags for knitted and crocheted projects there is a heart somewhere worked in. My grandmother also told me I had my mothers heart (she passed when I was 11). I'll be 50 this July and in the last 10 years since my

If there's a way to turn it into a square I would love to know how to as well. 🙂 it's beautiful.
Hi! For some reason I can't find what size hook you used. I'm anxious to get started. THANKS!
It's a beautiful heart, but I couldn't get that last round. I couldn't work out which was my starting stitch or even work out where some of the 2sc were meant to be to sort of work it out myself. I couldn't enlarge the picture enough either to see and try and work out from there, so have abandoned the last round.
This is adorable! Well done. Hearts are not the easiest shape to perfect when crocheting. I can hardly wait to try this one. Thank you my DMIL will love getting one of these!
Crescent View Bed and Breakfast…she stated she used a size H hook
Can anyone please help me. It says To chain 3 and 12 double crochet in 1st chain. Do you join the circle and then do 12 double crochet in circle or is it 1st chain on bottom or 1st chain closest to hook? I am confused =(<br />My e-mail is phaz32@yahoo.com
This heart is beautiful; thank you for sharing the pattern.
No problem! I’m happy you like it!
Hi Lauren!
I just wanted to thank you for this wonderfully perfect dishcloth for a MUST make Mother’s Day gift!
