About A Merry Heart
Ask for christmas decoration and you get a hundred near-misses; A Merry Heart is one of the few that answers the question as asked. The designer behind it is Hands of Blessing Designs. No reviews either way, so the preview is doing all the work on this one. The save count is still small at 42, so read this as our opinion and not a consensus.
We check the yardage before starting a small gift, because running out twenty stitches from the end is how a quick make becomes a parked one. Put it to work on coaster first. If it survives that, it will survive whatever you had in mind next. The licence tab and the full-size preview are the whole of our due diligence here, and they take about a minute between them.
The words on the listing are crochet heart pattern, crochet pattern, gift pocket and sachet, and they are worth reading as a description rather than as tags. We keep it under Small Crochet Gifts, which is where to look if you want the rest of the small crochet gifts we have gone through. Judged against the requests we see — graduation gift ideas, crochet gift ideas, handmade gift ideas for best friend, crochet bookmark and baby shower gift ideas — this is a middle-of-the-road answer, and middle of the road is usually what the job needs. The same shelf also answers to keychain, keyring, basket, flower and bag, so widen the search there before giving up on it.

How to use this pattern
- Download the PDF from Creative Fabrica and check the yardage and hook size before you shop — a small gift rarely needs a full skein.
- Work the gauge swatch anyway on anything that has to fit, like a hat or a bracelet; on a stuffed toy you can skip it.
- Stuff toys firmer than feels right and close the seam with a ladder stitch — a gift gets squeezed, and loose stuffing shows within a week.
- Make the first one a week before you need it. The second one is always the one you give away.
