Make a Crochet Pillow Cover for Your House

I am using mine as a throw pillow for my room but it would look great anywhere I’m sure. This pillow cover pattern is great for a 15×15 pillow or pillow form.

I actually used an old pillow I had around the house that needed a little face lift and covered it with a black pillow cover. (I linked up a pillow form below if you are in need of one, just click to shop!)

The Yarn I Love for This Pillow Pattern

I can see this in just one color or even all different colors for a fun design! I used Vanna’s Choice Yarn from Lion Brand for my pillow because of how well it holds up over time, which is a must in my house!

Make Crochet Squares to Sew Together Later

I worked up 9 different color squares and sewed them together with a yarn needle to create the front of the pillow and used one panel of white to create the back!

This crochet pillow is super simple and I promise you will want to make more!

Pillow Crochet Pattern

Skill Level: Intermediate

Materials

  • Crochet hook size J 6.00 mm
  • Scrap medium weight yarn (4) and about 80 yards of white. I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Oatmeal, Silver Grey, White, Charcoal Grey, White and Mustard.
  • Yarn needle
  • 4 one inch buttons (optional)
  • 15 x 15″  pillow form – I found one here → 15×15 Pillow Form

  • You may sell items made from this pattern. If you choose to sell items made from any of my patterns, please link back to me at Easy Crochet for credit. Do not use my photos to sell any items. Thank you for respecting my work.

The Pillow Pattern Steps

Front of Pillow

  • To make the front of the pillow you will need to use my square crochet pattern which can be found here → Simple Square Pattern. Make 9.
  • You may block your squares after you are done if you wish. One Dog Woof has a great tutorial on how to build your own blocking station, which can be found here –> DIY blocking station.
  • After you have blocked you can start joining together your squares. I used my yarn needle and did an invisible seam. Here is a tutorial from Oombawka Design  –> Invisible Seam Tutorial
  • Now that the squares are sewn together you now need to attach the buttons (optional) 1 at every corner of your center square.
  • Finished size should be approx. 15×15″

Back of Pillow:

(Gauge is approx. 10 hdc’s for every 4″)

  • Row 1: With white, ch 35, in 2nd chain from hook half double crochet, half double crochet in every ch across, turn. (34)
  • Row 2: Chain 1, starting in second chain from hook half double crochet, half double crochet in every chain across, turn. (34)
  • Row 3- 25: Repeat row 2 (34)
  • Weave in loose ends with yarn needle.

Finishing

  • Using white yarn, single crochet along edges of front and back of the pillow while evenly holding them together. Making sure they are both facing the correct direction.
  • In every corner, single crochet, chain 1, single crochet.
  • You will make 35 single crochets across every edge. 37 including corners.
  • Make sure to only do 3 sides and then insert your pillow form. Continue single crocheting across last side to finish your pillow. Fasten off yarn and weave in loose ends.

I hope you enjoyed this pattern! If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

    May I copy the pattern. I don’t download PDF or print, because I don’t know how to increase the size of the fonts. I don’t sell anything I make, I give them as gifts or donate them. May I copy a picture of the square. I crochet, but am not sure of myself. I need a picture to go by to see if I am doing the pattern correctly.
    Thank you
