DIY Crochet heart doily free pattern – home décor

Cute, and easy enough to make crochet heart doily free pattern.
Add a finishing touch to your home décor with this beautiful doily.
This doily is a great gift for someone dear to your heart! It will look beautiful on a side table or on your dresser, decorating a girl’s room of any age.
Gauge: Gauge is unimportant for this pattern. I like to crochet the hearts with a small hook so they are rigid and there are no big gaps between the stitches; if you prefer a looser, floppier heart, use a G or H hook instead.
Yarn: You can use skein remnants of any yarn.
Hook that gives you a fabric you like.
Suggested colors: red and any contrast color.
US crochet terms are used.
