The best part is it uses just a tiny bit of yarn and you can make one in about two minutes. Why not spend an hour making a bunch in different colors and then figuring out what to do with them? Maybe send someone love in the mail? There are so many options. By the way, if you enjoy crocheting projects that are quick and easy, check out 90 amazing “Done in a Day” crochet patterns.

Hi Just wondering how I can scale this up for larger sizes? Cheers Elaine
Hi, Sue! That just means to slip stitch into the circle (that’s formed) or the same stitch being worked on.
What does ” join in circle as before” mean?
I am going to try and make this heart.
Need to learn how to make other things.
Thank you for this pattern.
I love this pattern, it’s so easy and pretty.
