Lots of Flowers Pillow Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach Crochet

🌸Lots of Flowers Pillow 🌸

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach Crochet

The Lots of Flower Pillow is designed for Spring.

It Looks so pretty in the colors I chose,

and would look lovely in any spring colors you like.

I even think it would be so pretty in

Fall and Christmas colors.

Just by Changing colors and flowers it's

the perfect pillow for any time of year.

I did design this crochet pillow pattern as a

"Scrap Happy Pattern". I designed it with left

over medium (4) weight acrylic yarn.

I chose these to brighten up my front porch.

It's a very simple Double Crochet

Corner to Corner pattern With random

color changes. I Crocheted 2 Squares,

14 inches, and stitched them together.

I Added lots of colorful matching flowers

diagonally for bright burst of color.

I Love, Love, Love how This pillow stitched up!

It is fun, easy and pretty!

Can't go wrong with that kind of project.

April Ornament Of The Month – Yarn Basket By Sara Sach Crochet

April Ornament Of The Month

Yarn Basket Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach Crochet

The April Ornament Of The Month

Is A Basket Full Of Yarn!

It can be made to have a Christmas theme

with Christmas colors,

or use any colors you like.

Adding all kinds of different details like buttons,

ribbon, beads, crochet hooks, needles and

stitch markers that you have in your craft stash.

This such a fun project to make for

yourself or for a gift.

I did not add a hanger, As the basket handle

can be the hanger, or you can add

a traditional hanger is desired.

I had so much fun designing this ornament.

I just hope you have as much fun as I did.

there are so many color and theme

possibilities for this ornament.

If you are not sure how to roll up the little balls

of yarn, I do show you in the video

how to roll them and secure them

from coming unrolled.
