3D Valentine Heart: Free Crochet Pattern. A few months ago I starched a doily, so it became a bowl.

3D Valentine Heart: Free Crochet Pattern

This technique has been slumbering in my mind and now I crocheted this free crochet pattern for a heart. I tried to shape it as a 3 dimensional ornament. You can use it as a Christmas ornament or as a gift for Valentine’s Day. In a hobby shop I found some styropor hearts, that were used as forms for the heart.

How To: Make An Upcycled Crochet Rug — Upcycle Magazine

Enjoy her free step-by-step tutorial for making an Upcycled Crochet Rug. Thank you Morgan! Step-by-Step Upcycled Crochet Rug Tutorial There is something so completely satisfying when you are able to create a piece for your home that is functional, cozy, and perfectly your style. All the more rewarding when you are eco-friendly, making the world a greener place, and adding that handmade flair to your everyday.

As the owner of King Soleil, I am always experimenting, altering, and creating, whether using crochet hooks, needle and thread, or embroidery floss. In this tutorial, you will learn how to take fabric and transform them into rugs using nothing more than a huge crochet hook and scissors. The only crochet skills you will need are how to make a skip knot (tying the fabric to your hook to begin), a chain (creating a ‘braid’), a slip stitch (pulling your hook through the stitch to join), and a single crochet (sc, the basic stitch in crochet).

Ta-da!
