Originally this Heart was Purple (the colour for Fibromyalgia, CFS, ME, Lupus and Alzheimer’s disease. To celebrate the courage of all my fellow warriors battling Fibromyalgia, CFS and ME I crocheted in purple. May is Fibromyalgia Awareness month. ) I have used Green in the Variation to show my support for a different good cause.

The last border is different, creating a much more solid look, plus there is a loop option for hanging the heart.

You can make this in any colour you like, but you may like to crochet in a colour that helps raise awareness for a cause that means something to you. Sew on to a brooch back, hair clip, scarf, jacket or anything you like. Give to a friend battling chronic illness. Give them away in a random act of kindness.

For the hearts in the photo I used acrylic scraps in DK 8ply (LEFT) and a 4mm hook and Patons Cotton Blend DK 8ply with a 3.5mm hook (RIGHT).

Any yarn with an appropriate hook should work. Gauge is unimportant.

Wishing you Happiness always,
Jane,
Queen Babs
