Beginner-friendly no-sew puffy heart pouches: FREE PATTERN

If you are a fan of practical crochet items which are also cute, you will love these pouches. They use a special stitch which is commonly known as “puffy V-stitch”. To me, they look more like tiny hearts stacked upon each other. So I like to call this pouch “the puffy heart pouch” to make it sound cute and fancy! The video tutorial was released around two months ago (last year btw:’)) on my channel but I thought that it was such an easy pattern and not everyone would necessarily need a written pattern. But I am posting this written pattern now since I know this can still be very helpful.

I carry these pouches with me when I go out to keep some bits and tiny pieces like lipstick, head bands, some pills or candies. They are very cute and useful. I used milk cotton and mohair for my pouches to make it look extra soft and fuzzy. I also do recommend this yarn combination to you all. Last but not least, if you love these pouches, I am pretty sure that you will like other pouches that I designed as well. Click the photos or the text below to see the pattern for other super adorable pouches! Happy Crocheting.
