Crocheting........Reveal!!

                             Welcome Spring!

                             








 Remember these............

Well I had just enough squares to make this...........................


A beautiful pillow cover...............................

Five rounds.......double crochet............makes these cute squares...........


Now the big question...................


How do I attach these squares.......................

I used 3 different methods.....................


On the front of the pillow cover I used a double crochet method........adding a chain of

3 then I double crocheted in to each 3 double crochets............

If I'm not describing this correctly see the close up of the stitches............





Now the back squares I wanted to be different so I edged each square in a single crochet..

then I single crocheted them together, one by one as seen here..................

Now I wanted to leave an opening for the pillow form so I single crocheted the opening

closed working in from each side leaving an opening......................

Once I finished the front and back I laid right sides together grabbed my darning needle and

my white yarn and sewed then together. This gives it a clean finish without the lumps or ridges.

Turned it right side out then..........

I used white  ribbon to close the opening........................

I love how I can use this pillow displaying both sides.......................

When creating I choose different options to attach granny squares together...


Do you!!!!!!

Well here is my pillow already welcoming Spring!!
