Crochet for Valentine’s Day is all about colour, warmth, and thoughtful details. Many of these projects use small amounts of yarn, making them perfect for stash-busting, while home décor items let you create something more substantial. Handmade Valentine’s gifts are the perfect way to show all the special someone's in your life, that you care.


Materials You’ll Need for Valentine’s Crochet

Choosing the right yarn makes a big difference. For Valentine’s crochet projects, shades of red, pink, soft pastels, and neutrals work beautifully.


Aran/Worsted Weight Yarns

A versatile choice for accessories, small gifts, and décor items. Offers warmth without being too bulky.
Some of my favourites:

Chunky Yarns

Perfect for cosy accessories and quick projects. Chunky yarns work up faster and give bold colour and texture.
Some of my favourites:

Super Chunky Yarns

Ideal for super quick gifts or statement pieces like chunky heart cushions or throws.

Hooks and Tools

Use the hook size recommended for your yarn or pattern. Other useful tools include a yarn needle for sewing in ends, sharp scissors, and stitch markers if your project requires shaping or multiple pieces.  You can find a selection of my favourite crafting materials in my Amazon store.

Coasters, cushions, garlands, blankets, or small plushies add a handmade touch to Valentine’s décor and make lovely gifts for friends, family, or a special someone.
