February 4, 2026 By Beatrice Ryan Designs Leave a Comment

Sweet Treat Hearts… Free Crochet Pattern! Make your Valentine a quick and simple gift filled with their favorite candy or treat… Money, Flowers, Gift Card… Anything they may enjoy!

Sweet Treat Hearts crochet pattern uses just small amounts of scrap yarn and a hook… So easy and quick to make!!!

In about 15-20 minutes you can whip up a Sweet Treat Hearts project for a last minute gift idea or make several to hand out to a group!

What you will need

Just a few yards of your scrap yarn, #4 worsted weight is great… But you can experiment, I love Red Heart Super Saver for this project!

I size hook or any hook you prefer depending on your yarn

Scissors and yarn needle to finish of the ends

And… Of course your treats!!!!

Did you know you can get Red Heart Super Saver Yarn at Target.com??? Yes… And many more crochet supplies! Currently it is only $3.79/skein and with a $35 purchase Free Shipping!!!

How big are these hearts??

Mine are 4 1/2″ x 4 1/2″… But yours can be larger or smaller depending on your tension, yarn and hook choice.

The pocket fits a 2″ heart shaped cookie perfectly, 4-6 pieces of candy, even a Valentine candy pack will fit!

Three things I would like to share…

They now have partnered with Yarnspirations to sell many styles of yarn including this exclusive yarn just for them… Along with may colors of Red Heart Super Saver, a large selection of the Bernat Blanket Yarns and Susan Bates Hooks!!!

These are the colors Yarnspirations was kind enough to send me 6 of the 8 colors, Forest Walk…Springtime…Lagoon…Nightshade…Parakeet and Sunrise… I addition to these colors, you will find Primary and Aurora... They are currently on sale for $11.00!!!!!

If you live in California, please head into your local Target Store and see if they are one of the test stores, if not… you can now order online at target.com!!!
