A few weeks back the family and I took a trip to Hershey, PA so I thought it would be fun to make some little crochet kisses to commemorate our trip. Aren’t they sweet? Work up this crochet kiss pattern to make up some sweets of your own …
Crochet Kiss Pattern
Here’s what you need:
- worsted weight yarn

Fasten off leaving a tail of about 6 inches.
Using a tapestry needle, weave tail through stitches to close. I prefer Planet June’s method for finishing off amigurumi items. You can see her tutorial here.
Top your kiss off with a little label. You can create your own with a marker and paper or ribbon or you can print out mine here.
Molto dolce!

Hi Pat 🙂 I eased my paper through the stitches to secure it. You could probably place a drop of glue too if you need some extra support.

From the beginning this shape was for pee. Kiss in Swedish =pee. Look at this site! The brown thing is the “big” thing you make.

Melanie says
Is the “kisses” ribbon you have in the pictured, just pieces of paper? It is hard to tell. I want to use your printable but I don’t know how to print on ribbon. Is there another tip you can share?
Thank you!
Melanie
Kara says
Hi Melanie 🙂 Nope, the kisses part is actually just paper from my printer. Hope that helps!

Can you scale this version into a larger, huggable pillow version? I think this paired with some circular “hard candy” pillows would be so sweet! (bad pun intended) =)
Kara says
That sounds like a fun idea! I am sure it could be done. It would take some fiddling to figure it out though 🙂
Kadie says
You’re so stinkin’ clever! How fun!

Could this be converted into a baby hat? These are just darling and I had a friend make that comment. So stinking cute!!
