Today we have for you the pattern for an openwork crochet heart. The stylized heart is certainly something that has been around for so long that occasionally we have the impression that it has become mundane or irrelevant. But the heart carries with it a multitude of different incarnations, depending on the culture or place that you belong to. It is in fact the symbol of passion, spirituality, feelings but also of love and eternity.

Hoping to please you because, needless to say, the heart may have been exasperated as I use but everyone likes it and we all need it, a little heart.

Grab the fuxia Lincoln and go!
