Anthropologie Inspired crochet pillow – Free pattern

Post author:nihal salem

Hiii Everyone Am really excited to share this Anthropologie inspired crochet pillow with you!!! this pattern have been featured on Bella Coco Crochet blog for almost a year! and since I will be featured again there with a new design in a few weeks. I thought it is the time to share this pattern here on my blog too!

But Before you go to check the pattern let me remind you that this pattern is part of bigger project that I have been preparing for a while.

I have always had a minimalist style bedroom that has few colors and/or textures and I loved it: However as human beings our preferences change RIGHT? So I decided to make a room makeover (using mainly crochet and a few DIYs) to add a pop of color and some texture to my room and what is a better way to do this than crochet and pillows!! and talking about texture! what is a better place to get inspired than Anthropologie!

I have been eyeing those beautiful Anthropologie long pillows since I started this room makeover pattern series. And when I knew about the guest blogger application on Bella Coco Crochet. I decided to create my crochet version of it to be published there. And by the way this is the last pattern in this room makeover series!

Back:

Now for the back you have two options

Option 1:

Chain 56

Sc in 2nd chain from the hook and across, Ch 1, turn (55)

Row 2-143: Sc across, Ch 1, turn (55)

Option 2: (The one I went for)

Repeat the front pattern but with one colour and you will have a double face pillow!

Finishing:

Work one last row of sc along the long edges of your two rectangular pieces (work one sc in each row).

Seaming: Holding two panels together with right sides facing out, Single crochet the two pieces together (as you see in this video). Take care to match up panels’ sts and rows when stitching together. After you’ve stitched around 3 sides, insert pillow form and continue with the 4th side.

Make 10 tassels and attach 5 to each side.

I hope I inspired you to make something beautiful as you! If you made it, share it with me on Instagram. I would love to see how you adapted it and what variations you made 🙂

Take care and happy crocheting.
