Crochet Smiling Face With Hearts

After I published my first six crochet heart-shaped faces some time ago and they became very popular, I decided to continue my heart-shaped faces series. So, I designed a second set of six faces and they are again based on a heart-shaped theme.

The heart-shaped design of my smiley faces is a bit unusual, but it is perfect for Valentine’s Day.  You can make them for kids, friends, spouses, or coworkers. You can also use them for home decoration or simply as appliques.
