I have a big thing for hearts - their curvy shape, symmetry, lush red colour and the country cottage feel they can lend to a home. If you were to come round to my house, you would notice them dotted in practically every room.
I love this heart garland I made to decorate my dresser at Christmas time, so much so much it never came down. Click here for this great pattern on the blog Suzie's Stuff.I have been trying my hand at a pattern for a 3d crochet heart, and I have to admit, I am finding it tricky to get my heart symmetrical!
There are many patterns on the Internet for crocheted hearts, but I found this one the simplest to follow at Instructables. A bit more practice I fear before the 14th!

Sharing your love of the heart and now strangely tempted to draw a massive one using the bottle of ketchup that's sitting in front of me. Loving the red crockery. Consider me subliminally influenced.
There's a great little crochet heart tutorial (not 3d) over at the Royal Sisters blog http://theroyalsisters.blogspot.com/2009/12/grandma-hearts-tutorial.html
I'm just making some myself.
Victoria - thanks for the link, those granny hearts look great in blue, might just have to whip up a few...!
some cute photos..like your crocheted garlands
