Tip:

Use a soft, lightweight yarn for a delicate and refined finish.

Materials Needed:

• Size 5 or H crochet hook
• Regular worsted weight yarn

Magic Ring:

• Place the yarn over two fingers and hold with the thumb.
• Wrap the yarn around your fingers, turn your hand over and hold the yarn down with your other fingers.
• With the crochet hook, go under the first strand of yarn, grabbing the second, pulling it under the first, and twisting your hook.
• Grab the working yarn with the hook and pull it through the loop on your hook (counts as first chain).

Chain two more for a total of three chains.

In Round 1 (Heart Circle):

• Place 12 double crochets into the magic ring, making sure to cover both strands of yarn.
• Double crochet: Yarn over the hook, insert the hook into the ring, yarn over, pull through, yarn over, pull through first two loops, yarn over, pull through remaining loops.

After 12 double crochets (not counting the initial chain 3), pull the magic ring tight to bring the work closer together but not fully closed.

• Join with a slip stitch into the top of the third chain.

Round 2 (Heart Shape):

Slip stitch into the second stitch from the hook.

• Make 8 triple crochets into the same stitch: Yarn over twice, insert hook, yarn over, pull through, yarn over, pull through two loops (repeat until all loops are worked off).
• Place one double crochet into the next stitch.
• In the next stitch, make a double crochet and then a half double crochet.
• Add two half double crochets into the following stitch.

Next, create a half double crochet and a double crochet into the subsequent stitch.

• Create the point of the heart: Chain one.
• Repeat the steps mirrored on the other side to form the second half of the heart.

Color Change:

• Cut the yarn, leaving a tail, and pull it through the loop tightly. This completes the first part of the granny square heart.

Round 3 (Background Square Formation):

• Join a new color yarn at the base of the heart, in the double crochet just before the chain one at the point of the heart.
• Slip stitch and chain one to attach the new color.
• Slip stitch into the back loop of the next stitch and create a pattern of stitches increasing in height towards the corner: single crochet, half double crochet, then double crochet and so on.

To create corners: Place a double crochet, triple crochet, and then chain three into one stitch, then reverse the pattern (triple crochet, double crochet) into the next stitch and continue the side.

• Repeat this pattern to form all four corners and complete the background square.

Border/Finishing:

• Chain two and place double crochets around the square, with each corner containing two double crochets, chain three, and another two double crochets in the same space. This smooths out the square and gives a finished look.

Blocking:

• Consider blocking the square by wetting it and pinning it to a flat surface to straighten edges and perfect the shape.
• Remember to weave in all ends for a neat finish. You can create an invisible join by weaving the end back into the work.
• Keep in mind that for specific stitch counts and detailed instructions for each step, you should refer to the actual video linked earlier, as this is an adapted summary crafted from the provided raw scrape text.
