Crochet a Mini Hearts Bunting Banner

There’s something about hearts that just get me (and no, I’m not talking about anatomical hearts – though I think they’re great too). I like heart printed fabrics, heart doodles, heart-shaped candy, hearts on clothes, and heart-themed crafts.

Valentine’s Day gives me an excuse to bust out the heart crafts with no holding back. This adorable, oh-so-cute heart banner is no exception.

I’ve seen crocheted heart banners around the web, but I wanted to make something teeny and cute that wouldn’t take me too much time. This bunting is really simple to crochet – I did it in a couple of evenings. Little C helped pick the colours, and she chose where to hang it at the end. It’s a fun Valentine’s Day decoration, and I also think it would be the sweetest thing to hang in a baby’s nursery all year round!

Materials:

  • scraps of yarn in different colours (I made 5 hearts each in 6 different colours with an off-white cord)
  • size J crochet hook

Directions:

Crochet 5 hearts each in 6 different colours using the simple directions found here.

Then, with a contrasting yarn, chain 10, [SC in the top middle of the right side one heart, chain 3, SC in the top middle of the left side of the same heart, chain 5], repeat pattern in brackets until you’ve crocheted all of the hearts together. Chain 5. Your simple heart bunting is complete!

Little C had to “model” the banner before we hung it by our front door.

Oh, the cuteness. Don’t you just love her? (I do!)
