In 1785, Prince George or Wales commissioned a tiny portrait of his eye and sent it to his beloved, Maria Anne Fitzherbert, to convince her to marry him. It worked, and they were married shortly thereafter. The Prince then commissioned a portrait of Fitzherbert’s eye so that he might have her with him all the time. The tiny portraits became popular in England in the late 18th century. Some commissioned them as a token of affection for their lover, and others used them as a memento of a departed family member.
These necklaces have gained a new popularity with the show Bridgerton. If you follow the show, you have likely noticed that Marina wears a lover’s eye necklace on a strand of pearls.
You can crochet your own lover’s eye for a necklace or brooch. This simple pattern takes only an evening to complete and measures approximately 2” wide by 1.25” tall.

Who says Valentine’s Day has to be all roses and teddy bears? If your heart beats a little faster for quirky, cute, and slightly spooky makes, this Valentine’s Day Bat Amigurumi Crochet Pattern is about to steal your heart.
This sweet little bat is the perfect mix of spooky and lovable—soft wings, tiny ears, and Valentine-inspired details that make it ideal for gifting, decorating, or keeping as a year-round reminder that love comes in all forms (even winged ones!).
Bats are symbols of loyalty, intuition, and strong bonds—so honestly, they’re kind of perfect for Valentine’s Day. This amigurumi bat swaps the usual dark-and-creepy vibe for something cozy, cute, and full of love. Think heart accents, soft yarn textures, and an expression that’s more hug-me than haunt-you.
Whether you’re crocheting for:
…this project fits the bill beautifully.
This little sweetie only takes a few hours (I made one in an evening) and will make the perfect gift for your littles or for your significant other. I used acrylic yarn, but feel free to use up your stash of Valentine colors. Stay warm everyone!
