This pattern is free, but please consider making a donation to the charity Heifer International, to provide fiber animals and training to families who will raise them for income.
Originally I collected $3 per pattern to donate. For 2012, I was able to donate $96 which purchased 2 shares of fiber animals for families in need.

Spread a little love! Knit these little hearts to share. Make one for everyone you love! Quick knit, can be made in any weight of yarn. Worked in the round, with one little center hole to close at the end.

Have a fundraiser of your own! I ask that if you choose to knit and sell these hearts, that you donate your profits to the charity of your choice.
Ideas: attach a pin to the back to wear your heart on your sleeve (or lapel), or string some in a line for a wall hanging.

An idea from Absinthia, Rav knitter: add a pinch of lavender to the stuffing for a sweet smelling heart!
Raveler Milehihounds suggests making a pin to wear in honor of Women’s Heart Health!
Sizes vary from 1.5” - 3.75” depending on weight of yarn used.
