As a maker, I can’t think of a better way to someone how much I care than by making them a gift. With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite free projects for that special someone or the loved ones in your family! And, I added a brand new giant crochet heart kit to the shop that you’re going to love!

Huge Knit Heart Pocket
I adore this knit version of a giant heart! This one I made two-sided and seamed it into a pocket to fill with piles of chocolate for my daughter. It’s made with Loopy Mango, and you can find the free pattern here. After Valentine’s Day, fill the heart with stuffing and use it as a pillow.

is there a pdf for the knit picket?

Not a PDF. Only the link to the pattern on the blog. I’ve never done a PDF or the shop. Is that something you would be interested in?
