Heart Bobble Blanket Crochet Pattern

The Heart Bobble Blanket is a charming crochet project that combines texture and design to create a cozy and eye-catching piece. This blanket features a beautiful heart motif using the bobble stitch (PUF) to add dimension and softness. Whether you’re making it as a heartfelt gift for a loved one or as a warm addition to your own home, this pattern is both fun and rewarding to crochet.

The bobble stitches create a delightful raised texture that makes the heart design stand out beautifully. With my crochet style, the finished blanket measures approximately 65×80 cm, making it perfect as a lap blanket or a baby blanket.

Heart Bobble Blanket Crochet Pattern

Pattern Overview

The Heart Bobble Blanket is crocheted in individual squares, with a design where white squares represent SC (single crochet) and blue squares indicate PUF (bobble stitch).

Each square follows a structured pattern to form the heart motif using bobble stitches at designated points. You can crochet the squares separately and later join them, or seamlessly transition to the next square by changing colors without cutting the yarn, making the assembly process easier.

How to Crochet the Bobble Stitch (PUF)

Work a short double crochet into the previous row’s bobble stitch.
Yarn over, insert hook into the stitch, and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook).

Yarn over, pull through the first two loops (1 DC complete, 2 loops remaining on the hook).
Repeat the process until 4 DC are made (5 loops remain on the hook).

Yarn over and pull through all 5 loops to complete the bobble.
Continue with a single crochet in the next SC stitch from the previous row.

Instructions for Crocheting the Squares

Each square consists of 33 rows, structured as follows:

Base Rows (Foundation & Background) – 1st to 6th Rows

Chain 30.
Start from the 2nd stitch and work 29 SC.
Work 29 KS (short columns) in rows 3-6.
End each row with a turning chain and continue.

Heart Design Rows – 7th to 28th Rows

This section introduces the bobble stitches (PUF) at specific points to shape the heart motif:

Row 7: 14 SC, PUF, 14 SC
Row 9: 12 SC, PUF, 3 SC, PUF, 12 SC
Row 11: 10 SC, PUF, 7 SC, PUF, 10 SC

Row 13: 8 SC, PUF, 11 SC, PUF, 8 SC
Row 15: 6 SC, PUF, 15 SC, PUF, 6 SC
Row 17: 4 SC, PUF, 19 SC, PUF, 4 SC
Rows 19 & 21: Repeat Row 17

Row 23: 4 SC, PUF, 9 SC, PUF, 9 SC, PUF, 4 SC
Row 25: 6 SC, PUF, 5 SC, PUF, 3 SC, PUF, 5 SC, PUF, 6 SC
Row 27: 8 SC, PUF, 1 SC, PUF, 7 SC, PUF, 1 SC, PUF, 8 SC

At this point, the heart motif is completed.

Finishing Rows – 29th to 33rd Rows

1. Work 5 rows of SC to frame the heart.
2. On Row 33, finish with 29 KS, fasten off, and cut the yarn.

Once all squares are complete, you can assemble them using one of two methods:

1. Joining with a Crochet Seam: Use single crochet (SC) or slip stitch (KS) along the edges.
2. Sewing the Squares Together: This method ensures a seamless and neat finish.

For a smoother assembly process, you can transition between colors instead of fastening off at the end of each square. Simply switch to the next color before completing the last stitch of Row 33, then continue crocheting the next square without cutting the yarn.
