This sweet heart pattern is worked using the filet crochet technique consisting of double crochet stitches and chain 1 spaces.

It can be worked to any size/width/length required, using any yarn and appropriate corresponding hook size - The example set out in this pattern uses Double Knit/DK or 8 ply yarn and a 4.5mm hook.

Pattern is written using US TERMINOLOGY and assumes you are a confident crocheter and familiar with written patterns and filet charts - a sample filet chart is provided for convenience.

Single colour usage is suggested, striped versions could be made and would look great. Self striping yarn could also be used.
