17 Crochet Heart Stitch Ideas You Will Love!
Hello everyone, today I have a list of 17 Crochet Heart Stitch Ideas that I hope you will enjoy.
If you’re like me, sometimes you need to add a little cuteness or a girly touch to a crochet project, and these heart shaped crochet stitches are just the thing!
These crochet heart stitches look just like hearts when they’re made. They’re not heart patterns or heart appliques. These are mainly for working up fabrics, so things like baby blankets, table runners, scarves, sweaters, hats, etc.
Today I’m using a variety of yarn colors from Hobbii’s Rainbow Color Pack. They sell bags with a collection of 10 different yarns that come in really pretty color palettes. I’m using Pack #8, the one with pink/purple yarn colors and Pack #3, the one with different shades of blue in today’s post.
However! You can choose whatever yarn and hook suits your project best!
I’ve scoured the internet to find some of the best crochet heart stitch ideas for your next project, so let’s go ahead and jump into this list of 17 Crochet Heart Stitch Ideas that you will love!

# 1 Crochet Heart Stitch Blanket
The first up on our list of Crochet Heart Stitches, is a pattern from @ayseninorguleri. This is a video tutorial, and although there is no voice over, you can clearly see where she’s putting her stitches. You’ll be making a repeat of 5+4 chains, single crocheting back into the foundation chains and then the hearts are made up of 4 loop puff stitches, separated by chains.
#2 Crochet Heart Stitch
This Crochet Heart Stitch should be worked up with at least two different colors to get the heart shapes to really pop. The link above takes you to the crochet diagram (which I used), however if you watch the video available on the page…it’s a totally different type of heart stitch! It’s confusing, but this one turned out really great with using different shades of the purple yarn. Just make sure to scroll down towards the bottom of the page here.
#3 Punto Cuore Stitch
This lacy crochet heart stitch works up beautifully! This link will take you to a diagram of the pattern and there’s a video tutorial on the page. You may have to have google translate that page for you, as it is in Italian, but that didn’t stop me from making this lovely, openwork heart stitch!
#4 Heart Cloth With 6 Smaller Hearts
So this is actually a filet crochet pattern that creates 6 heart shapes in the fabric. The creator has a couple of diagrams for different styles of heart layouts you could do instead of the one shown in the picture above.
#5 Heart Stitch by Dessert Blossom Crafts

The Heart Stitch from Dessert Blossom Crafts, is an openwork and lacy pattern. You create heart shapes with a two row repeat. I found that after a couple of rows, I could remember the pattern well enough.
#6 Crochet Hearts Square Blanket by Fionitta

This is another lace crochet heart stitch, but what’s neat about this pattern, is that it starts from the center and grows out, so this is perfect as a blanket. The heart shapes are created by making picots over a gap. I noticed that to make your hearts stand out, you need to block and pin the picots down.
#7 Tiny Hearts Crochet Pattern
The Tiny Hearts Crochet Pattern displays cute, little hearts in an offset repeat. The design is simple and modern, making it a great choice for crochet wearables. I think this would also look really cute as a dress on a crochet doll too! You’re going to need two yarn colors for this pattern to work and also be comfortable switching between the colors throughout.
#8 Filet Crochet Hearts
This is a pretty filet crochet chart that shows off 10 open hearts with solid borders. The combination of double crochets and chains, paints a picture of the two columns of hearts. You should double check me, but I believe you’ll chain 66 and then double crochet back into the 4th chain from the hook. This is a great accent piece for a side table or a small table runner depending on the size of your yarn and hook.
#9 Crochet Modern Hearts Blanket
A great pattern from Daisy Farm Crafts, you’ll need two different yarn colors to complete this pattern. She also has you working your half double crochets between the posts (or you can think of it as completely under where you would normally place your stitches). You’ll need to be comfortable switching between colors with HDCs, which for beginners, could be tricky.
#10 Crochet Heart Cut Outs
The Crochet Heart Cut Outs pattern is very similar to #6 on this list, but instead of starting from the center out, you chain the amount of length you need and go back and forth. Make sure you’re flipping the picots down when you double crochet back into them so that it makes the top curves for the heart shapes.
#11 Moroccan Hearts Crochet Stitch
The Moroccan Hearts Crochet Stitch is a geometric heart shaped stitch that is reminiscent of the Moroccan art style. I suggest using at least two yarn colors, as the color contrast is what really helps these hearts pop.
#12 Offset Hearts Stitch Pattern
This crochet heart stitch pattern is composed of a series of V stitches and double crochet cluster “V” stitches. These cluster V stitches create the heart shape in this pattern. You can do this with one solid color, but the pattern looks a lot better with at least two different yarn colors.
#13 Granny Heart Stitch
The Granny Heart Stitch is a fun and simple take on a heart stitch with stitches that would traditionally make up a granny square. You’ll also need to contrasting yarn colors, or else this pattern will not work well. She says to start with a foundation chain of granny stitches, but doesn’t specify how many chains. I found it helpful to chain a repeat if 3+2, turn and make a single crochet in the 2nd chain from the hook, and then make a foundation row of all single crochets. After that I followed the instructions for this pattern.
#14 Heart Stitch by My Picot
The Heart Stitch from My Picot is a really interesting 3d stitch. Your hearts will sit on top of the fabric as you crochet along. After the first row, you’ll alternate between rows of just double crochets or rows of double crochets with the heart shape and also pinning the hearts from previous rows.
#15 Crochet Puff Stitch Hearts
This is an elegant, lacy stitch with little puff stitch hearts throughout. The repeat in this one is fairly simple, the hearts are offset in pattern, so you’ll need to pay attention to the edges as you go along.
#16 Heart Zig Zag Stitch
The Heart Zig Zag Stitch is a unique crochet pattern where if you use two or more yarn colors, your zig zags will appear as hearts! This pattern uses front post double crochets to separate the hearts from each other.
#17 Crochet Heart Wave Stitch
The Crochet Heart Wave Stitch creates wavy, lacy hearts using shell stitches. It looks great in one color or multicolors. On your first row, make sure you’re paying extra attention to the number of chains you are crocheting back into. When you make the shells in the first row, it can kind of hide the next chain!
That’s it for this list of 17 Crochet Heart Stitch Ideas! I hope you found a stitch pattern that will get you inspired for your next project!
Until next time.
