A Love Heart Valentine

Two little hearts, overlapped and surrounded by kisses form this afghan block which may be finished at 6, 9, or 12” for your sampler blanket. This pattern started life as an experiment in a design game in the BAMCAL 2025 group Worked in dk on a 4mm hook will give an approximately 9.5” square, Worsted on a 5.5mm hook will be approximately 12”. The final stitch count is 39. There are round by round photographs at the end of the pattern, which includes a chart kindly added by Jacqui for the two most lengthy rounds, and a tick box chart by Mermaidwiggle to help keep your place. This is my contribution to [2026 Crochet Block a Month CAL](/groups/2026-crochet-block-a-month-cal), and a thread will be available there for help and discussion. Tested by Jacqui, Lynne, P and Sandra.
