Crochet Tears of Joy Heart Face

This crochet Tears of Joy (or Laughing) Face is the second in the first series of six. This Emoji is also known as the Laughing Emoji. This face is laughing so much that it is crying tears of joy.

My crochet faces are heart-shaped, making them perfect for Valentine’s Day. You can use them for home decoration, as appliques, embellishments, or give them as little Valentine’s Day presents.
