9 Crochet Valentine’s Ideas You Can Start Now

When I say that I’ve fully embraced my crochet hobby, I have! Not only did I crochet stockings for my entire family this past Christmas, but I’m planning on creating a bit more for each holiday—including Valentine’s Day!

While I may not be doing everything on the list, I will be trying to do what I have time for (the granny square heart bag and little purse are definitely first on the to-do list).

But just because I don’t have time to make them all doesn’t mean I shouldn’t share my favorite patterns and let you do some, too! So today, I’m sharing the patterns for each of the crochet Valentine’s Day ideas I wanted to try this year:

The Best Crochet Valentine’s Patterns to Try This Year

Of course, there are other patterns out there that you could try, but I didn’t want to overwhelm you with all the options. Instead, since this is my list, I also tried to grab things I thought I could make time for.

Also, remember that while each pattern has preferred yarn, you can alter the pattern by adjusting your hook to match whatever yarn you DO have. And if you want more crochet ideas, don’t forget to check out my quick crochet gift ideas or these dinosaur amigurumi patterns.
