These sweet little hearts remind me of those vintage illustrations. Between the open stitches on the tops, and the stranded colors of the Red Heart Baker’s Cotton, I just find them quite appealing. There are two sizes for you to choose from, or you can make them both! The pattern includes written instructions, step by step photos, and a video of each heart.

Small heart is about 2 1/4” across and 2” tall, large heart is about 2 3/4” across and 2 1/2” tall, though the size can easily be changed by using a different size yarn and/or hook
