Valentine's Day is just over a month a way. So, what better time to start crocheting for the holiday than now? I wanted something that would work up fast, but be practical to for a gift for family or a friend, maybe a Secret Cupid gift.
This little heart works up in about 15 minutes and are great as a coaster for a glass on a table you do not want to get water damaged.
I used a skein of Peaches & Creme Solids I made four and still had yarn left, so I think a skein would be able to make at least 6.
