Red Heart Valentine Applique
"The perfect Valentine’s Day pattern for beginners, the Red Heart Applique crochet pattern is a quick pattern that is sure to brighten up any clothing/accessory. Since this pattern features a red heart, I used Red Heart brand yarn to make this pattern. Since Red Heart yarn usually features Medium Weight or Category 4 yarn. So to make it perfect, I used Category 1 yarn, using the brand Woolike Yarn by Loops and Threads. This soft cotton yarn works well as a border for this applique, and it's my go-to yarn when I need Category 1 for my crochet patterns! The Red Heart yarn should use the 4.25 mm hook and the Woolike Yarn will use the 2.75 mm hook. Check out the free pattern on my website!"
