Slow down, cuddle up, and find meditative and creative bliss using your hands to create this decorative 16" pillow cover with botanical crochet appliques. This is an heirloom quality decor piece with lots of love in the making.
The PDF instructions include directions and pictures of steps for making the crochet motifs, blocking, arranging, sewing, and trimming the pillow (optional). This is an excellent small yarn/leftover stash buster!
Yarn & Hook:
- 100 yds yarn for optional trim (Choose a yarn with linen or hemp fiber content for best trim stitch definition.)
- 100 yards sport or lightweight DK yarn, Hook Size E or F
- We recommend Hobbii Winterglow yarn
Pillow cover:
16” or 20" Solid color front square removable pillow cover with closure at center back (not on one side), with no piping or edge trim for making your own
OR
Select a pillow cover with existing edge trim if you don’t want to make that element, yourself.
This project is best for crocheters with intermediate skills.
