Step-by-Step Details

Starting the Heart Granny Square:
- Use the first color of yarn (baby pink) for the heart.
- Make a slip knot on your hook and chain 4.
- Slip stitch into the first chain to form a loop.
- Chain 3 and work double crochets into the loop: chain 2, 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets two more times.
- Connect with a slip stitch to the starting chain.
Forming the Granny Square:
- Chain 3 and double crochet into the next hole.
- In the next corner: 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets.
- Continue to double crochet around.
- After completing the corner sequence, slip stitch to join and chain 3.
Changing Colors:
- Work 2 double crochets, but don't finish the third one.
- Attach the second color (border color).
- Cut the first color (baby pink) and tie a knot.
- Continue with the second color, switching back to the first color as needed to continue forming the heart.
Completing the Heart Shape:
- The heart shape will start to form as you work around the square.
- Follow the pattern to complete the heart shape on both sides.
- Slip stitch to the starting chain 3 once the heart shape is visible.
Adding the Border Row:
- For the border row, work a standard granny square pattern around the heart.
- Once the border row is completed, chain 2, cut the yarn, and secure the knot.
- You will need a total of five squares for the hat.
Joining the Squares:
- Lay out the squares with one in the center and the other four around it.
- Add a border around the central square before starting the join-as-you-go method.
- Insert your hook in the top left corner of the square you are joining and attach with a slip stitch.
- Chain 3 and add another granny square row, joining with the adjacent squares by slip stitching through the chain spaces.
Completing the Hat Structure:
- Continue the joining process for all squares, ensuring the sides align.
- Once all squares are joined, you’ll have the top and sides of the bucket hat completed.
Adding the Brim:
- Attach yarn to any seam with a slip stitch, right side facing out.
- Chain 4 and work 2 treble crochets in every stitch around the edge for the brim.
- The pattern will create a frilled, decorative brim.
- Slip stitch to the starting chain 4 to complete the brim.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you will have a charming and festive granny square bucket hat perfect for Valentine’s Day or any other special occasion. This project combines the beauty of granny squares with the fun and playful design of a bucket hat, creating a unique accessory that you'll be proud to wear or gift.

Tip

Tip: When working on changing colors and joining squares, try to keep your stitches and slip stitches loose. This will ensure a more flexible and neatly finished piece, making it easier to work with and giving a professional look to your hat.
