Round 1:-

Start with a Magic Circle.

Chain 1(Not Counted as a stitch)

6 Single Crochets in the Magic Circle.

Pull the yarn to close the gap.

Do not slip stitch. We will be working in continuous rounds.

Round 2:-

2 Single Crochets in each stitch.

12 Stitches.

Round 3:-

1 Single Crochet.

2 Single Crochets in the next stitch.

Repeat (1SC, 2SC)

Slip stitch at the end and weave off.

18 Stitches.

Similarly, with the same pattern make one more circle but do not weave off at the end.

Round 4:-

1 Single Crochet each in 9 stitches.

Join the other circle with a slip stitch.

1 Single Crochet each in the next 18 stitches of the 2nd Circle.

Join back on the first circle with a slip stitch.

Stuffing:-

Time to stuff the Heart.
Ideally most of us would want to use fiber fill for the stuffing.

But what if I say we can use the tiny bits of yarn ends which we usually throw off!!!!! Oh yes...I have a habit of saving the yarn ends in a jar.
These would make a great substitute for all your amigurumi projects.

Round 10 Onwards:-

Keep Repeating 1 Single Crochet Decrease untill the gap is closed and weave off.

And....there you go!!!! 
Make them in variety of colors and make as many as your heart pleases!!!!
Your Cute Stuffed Hearts are ready for decoration or for gifting the way they are.
