A note from the designer: Nihal

I have always had a minimalist style bedroom that has few colours and/or textures and I loved it. However as human beings our preferences change RIGHT? So I decided to makeover my room and add a pop of colour and some texture. What is a better way to do this than crochet and pillows?

      Gosh, I’m really having a hard time finding a pillow form 12×27(or anything close) in USA. Anyone have any tips? Also the question about row 76 wasn’t answered. Is it the same as 75? Or?

        Hi Deanna, we were informed by the guest blogger that their was an error in the pattern which has now been amended as follows:- Instead of row 77 it should be row 76 and instead of row 78-79 it should be row 77-79! Hope this helps 🙂

        I too cannot find a 12×27 insert. Closest I could come was a 12×24 in Amazon.ca. Probably going to have to make my own.

    I’m still a newbie to crochet and loving it. Would it be the same using dk wool for this? Still struggling to understand different types and ply’s.

      Hi Karen DK yarn is a little thicker than the yarn used for this pillow. You could still use it but it will work up a little bigger

    In row 42 is the final 1 BO a mistake? It adds up to 56 stitches with that in the row.

    I have a 12×22 pillow form. So how do I change the pattern to fit that? I love the pattern by the way!

      Hi Tasha I’m glad you like the pattern As you have a shorter pillow, I would recommend skipping some of the repeats at either end – for example you could skip the two rows of bobbles.
