July Stitch of The Month – Triple V St Triple V Stitch Wrap Scarf Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 July Stitch of The Month – 
Triple V St  Triple V Stitch Wrap Scarf Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach Of  Posh Pooch Designs


The Wrap Shawl Stitches Up Quickly 
and is quite fun to make, as well.
It's an easy repeat row pattern and makes a great
 project to take a long with you.


It can be worn in several ways. 
Wear it as a Summer Wrap or Shawl.
You can also Wear it as a Fall Scarf.
Stitch the ends together and it's a lovely Cowl.



I designed the Pattern using using Just My Stripe Yarn
 From Lion Brand yarns. It's a medium (4)
Acrylic Yarn and works great for this project. 
I stitched it up with a J / 6.00MM Crochet hook, 
so the Wrap Scarf has an open and lacy feel.

 Santa And Elf Pillow 
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs


The Santa And Elf Pillow is an easy Crochet Pattern
 and is lots of fun to stitch up.
You stitch up a Santa Square and a Elf Square.
Then, we stitch them together so that one side is Santa Claus,
 And one side is a Christmas Elf.
We Stitch them together with a snow white shell
 trim for a fun Holiday touch.

The  12 Inch Squares For The Pillow. 

I designed the Pillow using Bulky (5) yarns for a 
chunky fun look, and it will stitch up quickly. 
I chose to stitch it up with an K / 6.5 mm crochet hook. 
This will keep the stitches close, so no holes.
I also decided to use a pillow form I purchased, 
but you can use your choice of stuffing. 


I Just know you will enjoy stitching Up the 
Santa And Elf Pillow 
to add to Your Christmas decorations.




The Pillow is Stitched in 2 Steps or Parts
