Super sweet snail

We love a small crochet project – and this super sweet snail from @ienies_amigurumi on Instagram is just adorable!

The shell shaped like a heart is the perfect finishing touch!

Gorgeous granny square

A granny square crochet project is a classic – and it can be adapted wonderfully for Valentine's Day, as demonstrated by @crochetlovemelbourne on Instagram.

This cute square could be worked into a book sleeve, crochet cushion or even a blanket!

Pretty potted plant

We're always on the lookout for innovative new ways to use our crochet skills – but a crochet pot plant is a new one for us!

This make shared by @stitchbyfay on Instagram is too sweet to resist – and a great way to use up scraps of yarn leftover from other projects, too.

Stitch a stylish vest

A crochet vest is a go-to project for us, and we never run out of ideas for versions! We love the idea of making a Valentine's Day-inspired vest like this one from @hayhaycrochet on Instagram.

The different colours used make it a great way to use up scraps of yarn leftover from other projects, too.

Cute coasters

And if you're looking for a really small crochet project to work on this Valentine's Day, why not make a cute coaster, like these ones from @theturtletrunk on Instagram. They're the perfect accompaniment to a glass of champagne on 14 February!

Happy crafting!
