Hearts are a simple knitting motif that just makes you feel good. They’re fun to knit and great to wear any time of year.
It seems like there have been a lot of new heart hat knitting patterns released recently, so here’s a quick roundup!
Love You Always by Lizzy Knits uses three colors of worsted weight yarn and two sizes of colorwork hearts, as well as a delightful giant pompom. It’s $5 on Ravelry.
Tanis Lavallee’s Heartthrob Hat is sized for babies through adults and uses worsted weight yarn. I love the gradient yarn used for the colorwork and the heart-shaped earflaps! You can grab this one for $6.
The Eternal Hearts Beanie from Asha Arun uses two colors of aran weight yarn and combines hearts and dots for an almost animal print look. The pattern is $8.90 Canadian.
Fairy Tale Love Story by Vanessa Ewing combines big and small hearts with other colorwork. It uses DK weight yarn and is $5.
And if lace is more your thing, try Meaghan Schmaltz’s Ewe Heart Hat, which uses eyelets to create the heart shape. It’s worked in worsted weight yarn, comes in three sizes and is a free download on Ravelry.
Or try the Heartstrings Hat by Wild Child Designs on Etsy. This one uses a single color of heavy aran/bulky yarn and simple stitch manipulation to make the raised heart design.
