 Pocket Pillow Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach Of  Posh Pooch Designs

It's A Pillow With A Pocket!

I received a request a few months back for a Pocket Pillow.

A Friend asked if I could design one for her mother.

She loves to crochet, read and work crossword puzzles,

 but her arms get tired from holding them up. I was so happy

 to design the pocket pillow and her mother loves it. 

Now She can rest her arms on the pillow and enjoy her activities.

 And then store them in the pocket, and keep them from

 getting lost.

I designed The Pocket Pillow with chunky soft yarns.

 It will stitch up quickly and also is comfortable on the arms.

As well as, being a simple pattern and totally washable.

The Completed Pillow measures about 11 X 11 inches.

 It's the perfect size for storing a book, eye glasses, 

pens and more. And it's a pretty pillow and will look

 lovely when not in use.

Any One, From young to mature, would love a Pocket pillow.

 Especially if they love to read.
