This crochet pattern for the Crying Face is the fifth in the series of six. The Crying Face is a sad face with a single tear running from one eye down the cheek. The Crying Face is also known as the Sad Face. It represents a strong sense of hurt.
This criying face, as well as my other crochet faces, are made in the shape of hearts instead of traditional round shapes.
