Materials:

5.5 mm crochet hook
Worsted (4-weight) yarn in colors of choice (example uses pink and white)
Scissors
Darning needle
Stitch markers, bobby pins, or similar items for marking

Instructions:

Starting the Heart:

Begin with a magic circle.
Chain 3 (counts as the first treble crochet [or triple crochet], hereafter 'tr'), then add 7 more tr into the magic circle.
Total of 8 tr if counting the initial chain 3.
Pull the magic circle tight but do not join, as you want the piece to stay flat.

First Row Expansion:

Chain 4 (counts as the first tr), turn your work.
In the first stitch, make another tr.
Continue by adding 2 tr in each of the next stitches across. You should have 16 tr by the end of this row.

Second Row Expansion:

Chain 4, turn your work.
Start with one tr in the same stitch, then follow with one tr in the next stitch and two tr in the following stitch.
Repeat this pattern (1 tr, 2 tr) across the row. You should end with 24 tr.

Creating the Extensions for Weaving:

Chain 18.
Skip the first 4 stitches from the chain, and make a tr in the 5th chain from the hook.
Continue adding one tr in each chain back down to the row.
For creating multiple extensions: slip stitch in the base of the last tr for starting the next extension, chain 3 and repeat the process for creating another extension until you have enough extensions for weaving.

Joining and Weaving the Pieces:

Create another heart piece following the same steps but possibly in a different color for contrast.
Lay one piece over the other perpendicularly and start weaving the extensions through each other, alternating over and under.

Bordering the Heart:

Use bobby pins or stitch markers to hold the woven sections in place temporarily.
Attach a new yarn color (red in the example) at any corner.
Chain 1 and start working loose single crochets (sc) around the entire heart, ensuring to work through both layers of the extensions to join them together.
Adjust the pins as needed to hold the pattern together as you crochet around.

Finishing Touches:

Once you've crocheted around the entire heart, you can fasten off and weave in any loose ends.
Adjust the shape of the heart by stretching it slightly where needed.

Notes for Adjusting Size:

To make the heart larger, use thicker yarn and a larger hook.
For a smaller heart, consider using a smaller hook or adjusting the pattern by using double or half double crochets instead of tr, or skipping the last round of expansion.
