Create a beautifully shaped 3D knitted heart with this free Advanced Beginner knitting pattern. Small, satisfying and full of handmade charm, the finished heart makes a thoughtful gift, comforting pocket heart, keepsake or decorative addition to a nursery, gift box or seasonal display.

The heart is knitted flat on straight needles in one continuous piece. Simple increases gradually form the body before decreases shape the two rounded humps. Once knitted, the heart is seamed using mattress stitch and lightly stuffed to create its soft three-dimensional shape.

The detailed row-by-row instructions make this an enjoyable project for knitters who are ready to practise shaping, reattaching yarn and simple finishing techniques.
