So, picture this: it’s Valentine’s Day, and I’m chilling with my crochet hook, thinking, “Why not whip up something sweet?” And bam! The idea for the Sweetheart Sweater hits me like a ton of yarn. I mean, who doesn’t love hearts, right? They’re not just for February; they’re an all-year-round kinda vibe.

*Yo, insert the hook in the stitch, yo and pull up a loop, yo and pull through 1st 2 loops on the hook* 3 times (4 loops on the hook), yo and pull through all the loops on the hook.
Notes
  • You'll first make the front panel, back panel and sleeves, sew the shoulders together and then attach the sleeves.
  • You can easily adjust body and sleeve length, instructions are in the pattern.
  • Ch 2 doesn’t count as a stitch.
  • Work with a 4 mm hook unless it says otherwise.
